Hecquetmarc Thanks,

I needed to stop the building to perform a short treatment of health, now I'm with all power and with 100% health.

The Fafnir on the picture looks impressive too! Wink

from Vince Cockett's plans?

Yes, Vince Cockett's plans.

I have built two models of Fafnir.

Flamingo, Spalinger S18 and Minimoa, CW plans.

For the future I will build the Rhonsperber and Slingsbay-type-18-Petrel.

See my squadron.

Waouuhhh ! Superbe José
I have the feeling that you are like me in love with sea gull winged sailplanes !! Laughing

I have also built the Minimoa from Chris's plans. My last one is also an american gull winged sailplane you might have seen on the forum:

Hello friends,

Today I finished the wing struts.

Still will not make the impact test as did our teacher and master CW.

I noticed that the fastening system proposed by CW works very well [good]

Hi Jose, beautiful work [clap]

what's that on your canopy, grey? masking tape to protect it?

Hello friends,

Today I finished building the Spalinger S25.

I chose to customize the colors that most appeal.

Hope you enjoy the unique decor.

Thanks to CW who kindly gave me the plans.
