Hello pilots! I had to post this photo. My new glider! 1979 IS 29D2 Lark. All aluminum, retractible gear, flaps, spoilers, aerobatic. 37:1 glide ratio. New paint. Only 165 total flight ours. What a find! I'll have to put a Hardwar logo on it somewhere. Maybe some nose art. Make it look like a Swallow.
Speed and Greed on Titan!
I was going to post a photo on my Onlne Games thread but the page won't upload the photo. When you hit Post Message key the page just sets there and does nothing. Oh well, I guess you'll have to just imagine what it looks like.

Oh, epic!
I'm about ten years off affording a glider.. ..assuming I don't keep burning it on computer upgrades. How much did this beast cost, if you're willing to tell?
Guess I'm stuck on the ground playing Condor instead of flying the real thing for awhile longer..

Guess I'm stuck on the ground playing Condor instead of flying the real thing for awhile longer.. I found the deal of a lifetime on this glider. It was only $10,500 US dollars. I don't know why it didn't sell right away on Wings and Wheels. Maybe everyone just wants the newer composite fibreglass gliders instead of the old aluminum ones. But at 37:1 glide ratio, this is a high performance glider. I'll take it! |

Sweet! What level of shields software does it have? Right now basic shields and minimum software. I'll be putting a Vario upgrade in it right away.  |

Maybe somebody can take a look and figure out why the file attachment function isn't working. I tried to upload a photo of the glider but it just sets there and does nothing.

Okay, it uploaded the photo this time. The glider can be seen on the Hammer's Online game board in the Happy Birthday Hammer post. It's not my birthday present but I didn't want to take up space not related to online gameing.
