I am a total stranger to you and I just happened on your story as I was
searching the net for Sisu pictures. When I was a youngster I used to hang
out at the local gliderport and run wingtips for rides and other such
freebies. One guy there flew an SZD Foka and I thought the supine flying
position was the cat's pajamas...until one weekend he showed up with a new
Sisu. That V-tail was the most radical thing I had ever seen on a sailplane
and it has influenced all my model sailplanes ever since. It was with great
sadness that I read about the demise of your ship, especially the part
about finding it on its back. Anthropomorphism (?) made it sound like a
giant regal bird that had passed away. My condolences.
