RE: Post the plane you learned to fly on!!
ASW 17 made by carrera/robbe/germany.
I was 12 (1980) and it was THE glider arf to get. I've had it for 2 years on my xmas wishlist
until i finally got it (was so expensive, dad wanted to make sure, i stay with the hobby).
fiberglass fuse, composite balsa sheeted foamwing 6'8 wingspan, rud,elev only.
selftaught slope gliding/soaring at the west denmark coast, 100 ft high sand dunes close to
the beach with lots of upwinds. alone at the beach, I felt like i was on top of the sky! no crashes.
than girls and motorcycles and more girls became more important.
restarted 6 month ago with a pt-40/tt42 this time with instructor than ustick60/saito100.
awaiting the OMP ultimate profile 100-300 bipe delivery soon.
