Leprechaun. Flying in 12 14 mph winds slightly across the slope
My old Leprechaun was getting a bit tatty and in need of some minor repairs, so I decided to give it a complete recover. Flight conditions weren t ideal, however I was keen to remaiden it. The wind was quite strong (for this lightly loaded glider) blowing slightly across the slope, producing a bit of turbulence. You can often see it flying with a pronounced nose downdown attitude in an effort to penetrate and keep flying forwards.
