Title: Piefje Post by: Madman on January 07, 2011, 09:55:13 PM Piefje (http://nocache-nocookies.digitalgott.com/gallery/5/3195_07_01_11_9_55_13.jpeg) http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=5062 Disaster! Just while I was embarking on my 5000 miles ridge soaring flight in the mountains of Erignea, I lost my piefje! I just managed to make a picture of it before it whirled down into the mountains. P.S: Since I expect that the subset of glider pilots and fractal artists that understand Dutch is rather limited and probably approaches one, here's a small explanation: a piefje is a sophisticated piece of equipment that ensures you can "straighten up and fly right". I think in English it's called a yaw string, but that's such a boring word... |
