A clarification to this Thread:

I am NOT advocating a return of this flying system, or that anyone anywhere ever develop a similar system. The Soarmaster plus Rogallo system was a very problematic concept and there are no realistic solutions to the instabilities it causes. Pilots soon abandoned the idea and moved on to other concepts with fewer problems and greater potentials. It was right that they did this, and God forbid that the Soarmaster make any kind of ' comeback'.

I am restoring the machine I own as a piece of Aviation History. As an Antique Aircraft, and an artifact of American History. The days of the soarmaster/rogallo were NOT the ' good-old-days'. I do not advocate for it's return.
