The trials and tribulations of the privileged. Can fly somewhere in a private jet but still have to follow procedure and pay respect.
Second strike....
Amazing how clearly you can see the entire outer wing ventilate at least half the time when sailing upwind with the big cant angles. With the big orange tips breaking the surface :P
Btw Zeus, I gotta say I fucking love this shot you took of the hull here...sent it around, someone thought it was an oil painting...some had no idea.
A bit OT but I took advantage of the empty quote.
It is an advantage LR may have; flaps adjacent to the biggest section of the bulb.
The flexible section is interesting as was the fishing expedition to try and get it classified as a control surface.
We had discussed that previously, I guess the only drawback would be water ingress.
^ looks like they went fishing for a one actuator per control surface, and got it.
I'm still not convinced that etnz is using a one piece flap with a single control as @Mozzy Sails suggests. And this interp would suggest not, otherwise we would see etnz appear with some changes. Haven't seen...
But really Muppet. I saw they sail with an orange tip. You said not. Obviously they do. So just say, oh, maybe they do. You one of those never wrong guys? How does that work for you? Now just carry on iggy.
