Well said skytrain - I concur, as I'm sure several others will.

I'll also add a personal one which applies only to me:

Do not post late at night when p####d !!

Hi LM,

Thanks for the guidelines, I'm happy with all of them. Could I make a suggestion for one more though: Please check that the design is a bonefide design or modification of one. There are a few designs which are just people's own 'flights of fantasy', which may exist in only one source. I don't include established manufacturer's published design proposals in this group.

Skytrain10
Thanks Mechta....could be the first hang glider we've had on SC?
Now there's a red rag to a bull (well, to me) if ever there was one!

Is that aimed specifically at me or to skytrain, who posted it?

Sorry Lightning Mate, I thought you posted it, so my comments should have been aimed at Skytrain10.

Hi Mechta

Please check that the design is a bonefide design or modification of one.
Valid point, particularly in light of the number of "fake" images/designs on the net....eh LM!

We'll see what other comments come back and then I'll add some appropriate wording assuming others are happy with it.

Cheers
Ken
