I#m working on this at the minute. Likely to be a postal competition. Fly at your own field and I'll crunch the data

very few of the guys I fly gliders with are members at just one club. Nearly everyone flies power/electric with another club.
Enjoy your new club Fred

I think the best option for this would be postal comp, but for that we need to find a good source of the rubber. EMC Vega do a complete set but it's not cheap and if we could find something cheaper it would perhaps encourage a few more to take part. We need a cheap source of 15m length of 5-7mm surgical rubber. I can find lots of 10m lengths, but struggling for 15. The rest of the needed equipemnt is easily sourced locally in fishing tackle shops

Is it just the coloured adhesive that's left? If it is I've heard it's possible to arm it up and once it's warm rub kitchen roll on it and then take the whole lot off in one go. Never tried it. Think I'd be more likely to use the heat gun and a scraper.

Looking  good Ralph. Are you softening the glue on the covering first with the hot air gun I see hanging on the edge there?
