    Thank you Jonker for sharing moments like this. In less than 20 years, you've managed to design and develop the best gliders in the world and make any glider pilot dream from the comfort of his sofa by watching your videos! Keep on making us dream! 🤩

    Do you have to retract the gears separately? The tailwheel was still out in the second flight
    Other than that - congratulations to another beautiful Glider. You just can’t beat the elegance of a Glider with a long wingspan

    So many possible options to fly this glider :
    3:28 two wheels out
    3:40 no wheels out
    5:09 only backwheel out
    Is there also the option to chose "only frontwheel out?"

    • @Stratiljirka
      @Stratiljirka 8 месяцев назад +1

      I wonder about the same thing. If you can close only the main wheel than they must have separate levers for each wheel which means I would have probably landed with only the main one out and damaged the glider very soon.

    I believe, that the absolutely key has to be, to built a complete new wing profile. Wind resistance by 250 km/h with glide ratio of 1:80 should be similar to a pinguine body. This ones swim enormous fast with a huge water resistance. That means their shape is absolutely optimized. Dolphin also. How reachable? Look at the front nose/body profile.

      Its just not meant for Americans. Talking of that third world country of obese ppl: This gilder does not come with a cal 50 gun and 1 mile per gallon.
      In short: Normal ppl will fit.
