I imagine his heart rate was up a bit when the red light did not go out. But I applaud his decision to ignore the gear indication and fly the plane after several attempts to get the green light. Do you, by chance, know which one of the three this one is? One was flown by Ed Makula, one by Jerzy Popiel (both of Poland, placed 1 and 2 respectively) and the third was flown by your own Rudolfo Hossinger, who placed 5th. I thought I had seen pictures of one hanging in a museum in Poland that claimed to be the one Makula had flown to the World Championships. Steve
I´ll check with some of the old timers on the history of the three Zefirs..
