This is just a quick post to share that we have a new partnership with Bruce Tebo. Bruce is one of 2 people that has flown a glider over 500 mph. He is also a very helpful pilot that is always eager to fly. Needless to say, he is a very skilled pilot.
Among many things, Bruce is going to help us make sure we are putting out the best Dynamics gliders that we can. He has started off with a Dynamic 80 build in the light weight layup and already has flown it to 272 mph. Being light weight it will not be a speed monster, but should turn some good speeds just the same. Bruce currently holds the record time for the Dynamic 80 at 453 mph, the speed record for the 80" class is 460 mph.
Attached are a few photos of his new D80 build. He will be putting together a D60 next.
We have a few more interesting birds for him to test in the near future. We are looking forward to getting his feedback on a few new gliders, and then ramping them up for some speed tests. Bruce is going to be a great asset and allow us some real world feedback for our designers and manufacturers as we start pushing into some new gliders that should be capable of higher than normal speeds. (We currently have a number of DS or DS acro planes we are working on.)
