Fencing Wire

Dave,
Any day you learn sumthin, its a good day (specially if it don't kill ya). I learn't heaps from this discussion. Just your explanation of the "downers" and how they work was well worth the thread, and explained a lot of things. Just cause most of us leave our machines in the shed on days when you and Brian are hard at it doesn't mean we aren't gunna get caught sometime. At least now, we've got some idea what to look for and how to react.

You sure aint botherin us. (well, most of us, anyway).

Cheers

Dave,
This old hole digger conciders that your writtings are worth copy and paste to be refered to any time in the future. With your easy no bull shit explanations are just so easy to understand. If some one don't understand your explanations it is obviously he don't want to. So just keep goin the way ya are for us not so experianced ones that apreciate your veiws. Just keep it commin Des the hole digga

Birdy, Its not my view that these posts are a waste of time. All I wanted to point out is that the topic header was "down wind turns demystified", yet we ended up talking about flying in convection or inversion layer effected parcels of air. Something which can occur whether you are upwind, downwind, cross wind or even in potentially still wind conditions.

All of these subjects are of real interest to the members.

Yes Drifter, but nun of it matters if theres no danger.
And everythns relitive, coz its the convection or inversion layer effected parcels of air dopwn low that can make a seemingly simple DW turn turn to sh1t.
So as far as i can see, it belongs on this thread, you cant talkn bout one without the other, coz everythns effectn everythn else.

Thanx Des n FW.

And thats the only reason its on the forum.
Its out there, waitn for all of us, so the more we know the longer we'll fly.

Birdy it all matters regardless of whether there's any danger likely to be involved or not. Its called education.
