[LASS Soaring] at the field tonite

[Ben Wilson]

So... after my really bad placing at the World Soaring Masters (80th out 
of 91), coupled with the relative performance of my ship as compared to 
the other JW Onyxes I saw, I went home and checked everything out on my 
JW Onyx. I rechecked the CG and found that I was way, way, waaaaaay 
off.  The CG is supposed to be about 108-112mm from the leading edge. I 
was REALLY forward of that.  Not sure how that happened.  Who knows.  
Anyway - and Gordy will be very happy to hear this - I took 1.875 oz of 
lead out of the nose and it now balances around 110mm. 

I'll be at the field tonight with my "new" plane. 

Ed - I need another spool of line for that winch, and I've got your box 
of shirts in my car!
