DZ Disaster

[Adam Glatt]

One of my DZs stripped the cam and crank gears due to overheating.  With 
the cooling I had at the time, the Greve DZ pipe was very hot to touch 
(i.e. burns skin nearly instantly) after landing.  I added a bunch of 
holes in the bottom of the bellypan in the landing gear area, and from 
then on I had more power, better runs, and could grab the pipe 
immediately after landing.
