A short trip to Alp Scheidegg - between Föhn and warm front...
Here I mentioned, that I had returned the 2-liner Leeloo to Michael. Meanwhile he has further modified the wing and that by now he is rather satisfied with the glider. He also made a modification to the risers, so that it should be easier for me to hold a collapse or make big ears. The 'deal' now is that I will keep the glider over the winter and fly it in 'calm' conditions, hoping that with some more flights I'll get used to the performance of this wing. In March'25 I'll be seeing Michael in Levico (iCamp) and then I'll decide if I'm keeping the wing. I know I've said this already twice before ;-)

As I was only ground handling today, I have not been able to try this modification, but it looks like a good improvement.
At first no wind at all, then finally the west wind set in and for a while ground handling has been possible. I had just finished packing up when it started to rain...
