Is that a Freudian slip Terry, or did you really deride the handicappers
decision? J

I protested loudly about the bad reference weight of the DG1OOO on the new
handicap list. My clear memory was that I was only able to fit 60litres of
water into the glider and so used my great mathematical skills to deride the
reference weight allocated. The problem however was that my 'memory' was
lacking and in fact I could place 60 litres into each wing (a significant
difference). This means that my claim was completely incorrect and the
handicap committee once again prove that they are very thorough and accurate
in determining the appropriate weights and handicaps. My apologies to all
concerned, in particular given that one member of the committee put
themselves to great effort to collect the relevant data so to help me
understand my error.

Hi All,
I need to get a glider & trailer from Kingaroy to Temora - Is anyone
heading in that direction (or part of the way, even) with a free towball
any time soon?
Cheers,
Nick.

No Freud intended. In an earlier email thread to this group I
expressed a view that the handicap reference weight made the
handicap useless, obviously "deriding" the handicap committee's decision.
Have now worked out that it was my error not theirs.
I would love to fit 80 litres in each wing but us more "robust"
pilots have to watch the scales. Handicaps and weights are set by
skinny people. :-)
