Henriks' new glider arrived. His brandnew Airwave Cobra was flown in. A Bruce Goldsmith product, yes Bruce Goldsmith who flies better under a handkerchieve than us under top gliders. For a review of the Cobra, maybe read the forums or articles by test pilots.
Our impression was that it had nothing to do with the previous dhv2 of Airwave before the Mustang2, who Henrik flew for years. I think the RA was pretty revolutionary in its field of designing gliders. Although still I wouldn't want, not even my mother in law, to fly the RA. Saw too many things happening with this glider. But that's over, they made an excellent dhv2 by designing the Nova Factor (is it really zig zagging on speedbar ..??).
I think lots of designers peeped over the wall, copied things no ?
We had another beautiful day, a hot day, early morning at the beach, waking up, stretching, sit ups, push ups, cafe con leche, siesta and flying, filling up our boots. Till late....
