Old Prepatation Piet up in Gauteng is testing my aircraft identification skills once again on the BERG blog, but this time he is adamant that I am wrong and he is right. He posted a picture of a glider dumping its water ballast, and I correctly identified it as a DG LS10. Piet reckons its a LS8, because, according to him, only the LS10 has upturned wing tips.
Can you spot the difference - First, the photo that started it all!
Two more of a DG LS10


And now two of a LS8


Maybe I should send Piet to an optometrist - I just happen to know one that practices in his area.
