Yes it is called the "greenhouse effect". The real one that is.
The windows (or car body) prevent convection from carrying the heat 
away. Not so much to do with radiation.

Re: [Aus-soaring] Artists required

2015-12-07 Thread Mike Borgelt
When we repainted the BD-4 I briefly considered bright yellow all 
over but decided a bland mainly white with grey belly scheme would be 
more anonymous than "that bright yellow homebuilt".


Maybe a nice anonymous white glider is better too.

Colour, unless bright yellow or orange all over, may not help 
visibility as it breaks up the outline.


Al Buttenshaw tells of when there was a orange and white Mirage at 
the squadron(ex ARDU) and all the others were camo. The orange and 
white one was unpopular as it was thought to be easy to see but one 
day he was a little late getting to the flight line and was stuck 
with it whereupon he proceeded to do very well as the presumption 
proved to be untrue. Apparently that aircraft was sought after, after that.


It would be interesting to know what temperature Schleicher gliders 
can withstand now. Years ago after experiencing his first Australian 
summer Rudi Gaissmeier said if the designers knew they'd use a higher 
tmeperature resin system or temper to higher temperatures.


Once when putting water ballast in my Mini Nimbus, Burkhardt Mueller 
then of the Braunschweig Akaflieg asked how often we did that. I 
said, basically all the time. "Interesting", was his comment. "The 
design assumption is 10% of the time".

I heard that the squiggly paint on the winglet of many an AS glider is 
supposed to be a thermal.
Wondering what the squiggly bit under the canopy rail on mine is meant 
to be. Looks like water, so perhaps it's the Plimsoll Line?
