Subject: FIGHTERS: Korean

Interesting to read in Peter Lee's report that the Korean fighters are 
so fast.... there's an article on them in a recent Kitelines mag
too I believe - which I must get and read.

As far as I know, that article has no details on construction and flying,
does anyone know of a source for such details? (Yes I have seen *pictures*
and even built from them - but mine flew hard and fast up high then pitched
over forward, catching the wind with the top - or alternatively roared up 
the side of the wind, ie upwind, until they just fell from the sky)

I noted too, Peter's comment that the fighter competition attracted the 
widest range of nationalities - I'd love to see a few from the Korean, 
Indian and Indonesian etc communities here show us how its *really* done. 

(BTW For those who followed the saga of my "Kite for Christmas" I've got
a "Slash" from Ground Zero Kites (Tasmania-based I believe). Not as
big as the Excaliber, but came well recommended - now I just have to 
restrain myself for 3 weeks <g>)
