If you're interested in the history of soaring and especially in fins
detail of particular gliders its well worth bookmarking the Scale Soaring
website:

Just don't be put off by its name! The in-depth documentation and photos
of the gliders it does cover is excellent, e.g the Fafnir. However, its
overall coverage isn't a patch on Martin Simon's "Sailplanes" three
volume series: you'll definitely want them as well. The Scale Glider
crowd rate them highly for his three-view drawings.
