Development

The Mü12 Kiwi was conceived in 1935 as a single-seat training glider of simple and rugged construction with a high strutted wing and a plywood covered rhomboid section fuselage. Flight testing revealed a glider with good control response but less than satisfactory approach control. Due to various problems certification of the Mü12 Kiwi was delayed to the end of 1935 and finally abandoned.

Performance

gollark: The "fun" thing about is that OIR is actually served from an entirely separate part of osmarks.net and just happens to pull track info from the RSAPI because that was the best place I could find to fit it.
gollark: * radii, and maybe
gollark: Anyway, I am considering overhauling the Random Stuff API Current Song Protocol™ for OIR™'s frontend to run over websocket, allowing:- somewhat better performance maybe possibly- live chat about how much you hate a song
gollark: It used to be called the amplitude processing index observation horizontal technology turnover platform.
gollark: Actually, it's the apionic/pythonic internet octet host ternary transmission protocol.
