Does anyone have experience using carbon fiber (like a fuselage) as the ground plane for an antenna? My primary interest would be a transponder antenna.
I know carbon fiber can shield the radio si...

Hello,
Who can give me general information on the SZD-45 concerning ground handling,flying it,technical problems, AD´s, engine use, real performances(T/O distance ROC,...) best regards,
slides along the ground and does not dig in, but if it does; the glider does not, will not, continue going straight ahead. It will head for the side of the runway, and eventually either straighten out...

If you really are a T.V. lawyer then I suggest take a pattern tow, point the glider straight at the ground, and don't flair until you can count individual blades of grass!

Hi Jeremy,
The only handling problem is to move it on the ground by hand. With 3 person it's hard to push it by hand, you better need 5.
It's flying smooth and the manouverability is...
