    At 200-Lb , ( 90.7kg) in a swimsuit ; it kinda looks like by the time I add harness, reserve, and weight of the glider ; I may need the XL, judging from the specks from the 1st version of the Maestro ?

    Good wright-Up here :

     

    Phi Maestro Review (EN B)

    This is the part I Like : … “At the leading edge nylon rods create an air scoop (sharknose), but only one rod is used on each opening. …

    Kinda like the Gin Carrera   ? I Really Liked that glider ; busted through the inversion layer 4 times, and never once had a collapse of any kind , on that borrowed glider ! It was my first go , with a PG that had Shark-nose ; and everyone knows how turbulent it is , breaking up through an inversion layer !!

    Does this new Nova , have shark nose ?

    Totally Reasonable strategy ; gas is getting Really expensive !!

    As soon as 5 good days of flying, line up at CSS , in a row ; your gonna see my ugly face down at your flying site.

    I don’t understand why this glider has not sold ? There is No Rogallo

    on the market that could stay with it ; with equal weight pilots !

    How many people were at the WW demo days, the year Steve Parsons

    gave the lecture about why WW stopped top landing Martial for testing

    their gliders ?

    Anyone care to summarize, the entirety of his speech ?

    It does Not matter what your level of experience , or how long you have

    bin flying to achieve your attitude for EGO ; only TWO thing’s matters for

    these decisions :

    Exactly what is the reward , for the Risk your about to take ?

    And — Your decision could effect your flying pears , in a very

    negative way ; so do ya really wanna disrespect your friends

    that way ?

    With a winch line stretched from the top of the new trainer hill

    to the end of the grass landing field ; i bet a pilot could tow up
