Welcome to my world! I was at an ESL event a number of years ago
and had the same thing happen to me. I recall I was doing real well that
day when, during the last round of the day I couldn't see my Pelican. It
just disappeared!!! I was in good lift (from what I recall oh
Sorry to hear about the Laser. Kurt is right it just gets worse. ;^( Aging
eyes I think aided to the loss of my Graphite last year. Now I tend to
return to the field earlier and not fly so high, even with the BIG
airplanes.
Look at it this way, it makes the hobby more challenging!! ;^)
I lost total vision in my right eye right after winning in Sydney a about
two years back. Catarach, likely from the sun. I went from 20/20 to
blind in 80 days.
Fortunately they had a new lens in and back to 20/20 in two days.
Took about a year for my brain to get used to the new clear lens.
I like to use Burnley's Soldering Paste flux. First, clean the parts, and
it helps to run the steel wire between two peices(one pc folded over) of

Whip. Yes boys and girl, The Whip. You have stated that all of the various

So DP, just what will your New airplane be
I have two Topaz's and love them both. One has the original airfoil, and
one has an airfoil just like the AVA (more camber and thus a bit slower
with less penetration). I prefer the original airfoil (better
penetration).
The Topaz is extremely strong and durable.
The new Topaz also has a

That has already been suggested. And... since I'll be
needing a new 2 meter... look for the Insane Shrink

Well, this evening the temp read 23 degrees cooler than last night when I went
by the bank. 2M is done and Tom Kiesling has another Championship to his

As CD for this event, I really have to tell you that I am really glad
that I was watching and not flying. The last two days were brutal and
flying showed what this community is all about.
The flyers were cool in the really terrible heat when I put in times

..Well okay it was more like explosions as they pinged off
supersonic launches to the base of the clouds. They are the most amazing
super light 2m sailplanes imaginable.
Watching their launches (and there were bunches of them going up the lines
all day) was very cool. Even less
