A chum tells me that the receiver pilots thought they were great - they did the trial in late evening and the drogue was superbly lit. Also the drogue aerodynamic behaviour was, if anything, better than the normal one! And it trailed and rewound very smoothly, with virtually no 'sucking spaghetti' effect.
Wasn't the correct technque not to look at the basket!......or was that cheating......
