Default Wire Bend

Tim Wescott fired this volley in
:

I needed someone to tell me to do what I knew I needed to do. I'm

kinda
disappointed in the kit


I've got two kits on the shelf that have had to sit there until I get
this military project done and accepted.

I don't think I've ever built a kit that I didn't modify -- sometimes a
lot. Unless the whole thing is a botch-job, I don't really think of that
as "disappointment" so much as "improvement".

I'm partial to 3M gliders, m'self, although I have three stink pots,
still, and have flown fuel for decades. The sailplanes just seem more
"elegant" in the air, especially when you get a two hour flight off a
rubber high-start, and not a DROP of fuel!
