Hellooooo Rol! :wave: And welcome to the US Hawks.

That's some wing your working on there! I'll give you lots of credit for all the development work you've put into the project. That's one beautiful bird. :)

As for me, I think I'll have to stay with the more common Rogallo/Flex wing hang glider. Mainly because I haven't got the $10k or more for such an advanced rigid wing.

I also noticed that you are using Patreon for partial(?) project funding. I only recently learned of Patreon in connection with a of couple blue water sailboat owners/crew who use it to help fund their around the world sailing voyages. Great to see it being used to help fund a flying project.

It does help if you were born with a keyboard in your mouth.
If you’re using a smartphone an even smarter way is with a laptop or home computer.
Word out there is that it took your husband almost ten more years to thermal gain as high as you
did. He must be a slow learner.

Word out there is that you're one of the very few hang glider pilots who has flown a kite with another human being in it.

Hello H4Retired! Great to see another new member of the US Hawks. :thumbup:

I have a question for you. :? Does the "retired" part have to do with your general state, or are you a retired H4 pilot? Meaning you don't fly anymore, or is it that you don't work at a job anymore but still fly?
