:uhoh:..:\..:eek:..:{

Not even a question from RR.

Is this a CAD rendering or a silhouette of a real glider ?

Lightning Mate 24th May 2012 18:12

It is a very special project which, on the latest available information, is due to fly next year and set an absolute record.

This glider will fly at Mach 0.5.

It is a rendering of what it looks like.

Plenty of clues. It must be the Perlan then ?

Lightning Mate 24th May 2012 21:41

Good to see someone out in the playground!

The Perlan it is mate. :D

Over to you. :ok:

Thanks. That Perlan is going to be one high performance bird! Here is the next silhouette:

Possibly a Dornier 328.....

Ridge Runner 25th May 2012 08:20

Surely the 328JET, David? I'm surprised you missed that!!!! RR

Lightning Mate 25th May 2012 08:22

I didn't miss it - it's obviously the jet version, or to give it it's full title, the 328-300JET.

Ridge Runner 25th May 2012 08:37

Isn't hindesight a great thing, David! ;)

Of course I realised that and wasn't claiming anything by it, just pointing out that you seemed to have missed the large hairdryers under the wings!

Me - miss a jet engine?

Ridge Runner 25th May 2012 08:49

THat's what I thought!

Ridge Runner 25th May 2012 08:54

I guess we just need a seconder and we can move on?

Lightning Mate 25th May 2012 09:36

After the lack of appearances yesterday methinks we'll prolly not get one.

However, I don't know what Brian does for a living but he's been on here at all times of the day and night, so he might appear soon.

Have you moved house now ?

Ridge Runner 25th May 2012 09:42

Not yet, next Friday, but lots of packing!!!!!!!! We're not moving far!

SincoTC 25th May 2012 09:43

Morning guys :)

Just stopping for a quick coffee break, but can't stop to play, it's been a really heavy week and still got Internet problems at home :(

I recon that this'll do for proof, so I'll at least second David's answer before I go!

Lightning Mate has control :ok: See you again soon!!

Lightning Mate 25th May 2012 09:45

Moving ain't fun, even for a short distance.

I've finished with all that and we ain't moving again.

Happiness is no mortgage plus three pensions. :):)

Lightning Mate 25th May 2012 09:47

Lightning Mate 25th May 2012 09:55
