Using the Skymelody, Flying the SB-XC, by RnR, I reached 1500m,
Way to high, When I brought the plane down The last reading from
that fine German girl was 650m, almost immediately after the plane
blew up. according to RnR and xcsoaring I was in excess of 150 mph
and flutter took over. Hence I am learning safer ways to bring my
plane down from high altitudes so that I do not do the same with the
sister ship.
