Dear Doctor Gonzo,

Congratulations on moving to the land of milk and honey........and
when it thaws out, you'll see how great it is.

How is it that you can DL a glider with a wing so fragile at the
tip? I would think the launch would need to be very precisely on
plane to avoid any racking of the tip and destroying the model.
Otherwise getting a very light IDHLG glider to the roof would
threaten existing records and is an exciting idea.

I noticed that your DLG at the Colorado Springs Auditorium was
launched left and transitioned to a left glide. This is opposite of
my outdoor FFDLG which is left/right. What is your rationale for
this?

Regards, Randy
