I flew my 26 year-old Original Firestar for the first time this spring. I forgot how light it really was since flying the Kolbra all winter. I took a 130 mile flight around the Minneapolis and St Paul metro during mid day thermals and got kicked around pretty good. Had I been flying the Kolbra, it would have been a lot more stable in that rough air!



Wing loading makes a difference ...
