Ah, the Genesis (originally the Eclipse 14). The first flying prototype was one of my favorite birds ever. I hooked in on the heavy end of the weight range and could still scratch at the beach just fine...and the handling was like having power steering. Made my old Eclipse 17 and the "new" (back then) Mark IV's feel like a truck.

Snicker...I had forgotten that. Did you get the prototype or one of the first production gliders?

Hey Karl, is that Lynda's old bird?

It's not Lynda's glider. That one had a blue dacron leading edge, this one is pink mylar.

I’m in Milpitas, California, about 35 miles SE of San Francisco.
