Two questions about gliders...

  • Does anyone have a link for the glider that's like a flying wing, (possibly Horten)? It was released a while back and haven't been able to find the thread.


  • Was there a winch utility that you can use with any glider, or was that just an aircraft-specific thing?

Thanks! :ernae:
 
Not sure about your first question, but for your second you're looking for WinchX!. When you find it, if you haven't already got it, grab a copy of CumulusX! Both are by Peter Lurkens.
 
I think you mean this one..search Daivid Rowberry at Flightsim.com and there are other hang glider and glider designs..

FS2004/FSX Horten Ho IV. The Horten Ho IV was the fourth design conceived by the Horten brothers. The first Ho IV flew in May 1941 at the Konigsberg Luftwaffe base. Of the four airframes completed two survived the war and were flown by RAF personnel in Germany and England until 1950. In 1951 airframe #25 was shipped to the USA. The following year Rudolf Opitz won two major soaring contests with it, and placed seventh in the Nationals, after losing points through a navigational error. That aircraft is on display at the Planes of Fame Museum. Airframe #26 remained in Germany and is now fully restored and on display at the Flugwerft Schleissheim Museum, Munich. These models depict the two surviving airframes. Made with Gmax, the aircraft features full animations, wing structure visible through the translucent fabric covering and a highly detailed VC with customised gauges, By David Rowberry.
