Yup, sure did.?It's been almost 4 months since I flew the older Litespeed so I didn't have the memory of how it flew. It seems like?the new one is?lighter?in roll (and lighter carrying it!) and has a better sink rate on glide. It is easier to flare, although it's harder to get vertical for some reason, but with the small control frame, it didn't seem to be as critical. The first tow I took on it was not as easy on the shoulders as the second one. I was hanging a little too low and the trim was too far back. After adjusting both, the new Litespeed was like the old Litespeed on tow, except that it seemed like the new one was a little harder to bring down if it gets a little high. And for those of you who want to know what the colors are of that glider flying high above you, my LitespeedS is mostly white with a narrow green strip across the back followed by a?narrower black strip.

Highland wasn't officially open, they just opened it for me to try out the new glider - since I bought it through them. It was a great day.
