Nice model - thanks for sharing.

Little tip for anyone. If you see one of these being put together, walk away. The wings are really heavy!

Tim, I'm sorry, but I don't understand exactly.

These vintage gliders are stored in parts. And some assembly is required before use.

The wings are very heavy and have to be lifted to quite a height to slot together. The first wing is quite easy, it's the second that's a real pain.



That said they are nice to fly in ( i was only a passenger)

Now I understand. It's the same with Heron (SZD-10 Czapla). It is difficult to disassemble and reassemble even harder. I have more then 10 flight-hours on Heron as pupil-pilot.

Nicely built Tutor! I have that model burning up hard drive space. I've been tempted to print it and make it into a flying model. You certainly did a great job on yours, especially the airfoil shape on the wings. They are very smooth and probably would fly quite nicely if weighted properly.

Willy, thank you. I think that this model would fly very well but there is not weight balance.

Regards.
