Subject: RE: Stunt Kites 2 corrections

The recent posting about the corrections to ST2 created quite a stir here.
 While we found some of the corrections were good, we have some questions
about others.  
One thing that would help is to know if the person who posted that message
(sorry I can not find your address) plotted out the kites from the
drawings in the book.  
I would also like to know if that person has made any of the kites in the
book.  Several people are talking about trying the El Macho, like to know
if you have tried this.
Thanks

I have made a Krypton-S and La Hembra, and can verify that neither
of thses kites can be made as in the original plans.  However, we
did not construct La Hembra as in the corrections either.

The author of the big corrections posting is Peter Ruinard.  He is
the author of the software that comes (as an extra) to the book.
I am sure he will ahve more details of updates to the plans.

I am very interessted in any corrections to the La Hembra plans, as
this is one of the kites I am going to build. Please keep us informed!

I have made the Speedwing 3x1, but the plans seem to be wrong. The
sail is not vide enough (the spreader won't fit at all). I corrected
the sail by using some measures from the plans from the "Stunt Kites
1" book and guessing the rest. It was not that difficult after all,
but knowing in advance, that there were errors, would have helped me.

Would someone please help me out by e-mailing some info on getting the
corrections to Stunt Kites 2 plans, especially La Hembra. I checked the
FAQ but couldn't seem to find it.  Thanks in advance.
