Peyret Alérion glider, 1/72, Guido van Roy, DGA

This is a test model of a future DGA model from Guido van Roy.
It is a very unusual and famous french early glider. See:
Peyret Tandem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I have resized the model from 1/48 to 1/72 and added the ailerons control horns and a new tail skid.
Thank you very much for this wonderful flying machine.

Very nice model of a strange looking plane. I like it.

Great job Jan !
I might have to rework the tailskid (as you did) and wing trailing edges. Your build looks spot on. Congratulations !

Thank you Guido.
I think that your tailskid was also used but this one is more "artistic".

If you are still interested in old glider, may I suggest you the Brokker( the unsuccessfull competitor of the Alerion at Itford) or the Clement triplane ;

Triplan Louis Clment
