One surface of one glider wing has now been covered with mylar gap seal tape.
Tomorrow I will flip the wing over and apply gap seal tape to the other surface.

This Epstein files document says that Epstein allegedly threatened to burn a young woman’s house down if she revealed that he had stolen and sold personal photographs she had taken of her sisters.

One of the crappiest trends I’m seeing in my mentorship sessions today is people getting laid off from large corporations after 20-40 years of silo right now. It’s really appalling if not unexpected.
If you’ve been somewhere over 5, 10, 20 years it’s worth looking at your employability elsewhere.

What's the difference between the photography filters Wratten 47 (blue) and Wratten 47B (deep blue)?
Number 47 passes about 3 to 4 times more light, so for light-starved astrophotography you probably want that one over 47B
But 47 does pass slightly longer […]
