There is a short article in one of Bill Gunston's books ( think it's called
Back to the Drawing board or something similar) about the Capelis- it was
assembled with self-tapping screws, so when it was run up it left a pile of
hardware on the ground. Not exactly reassuring to crew members. I believe it
spent its entire career being towed from studio to studio as a life-sized
prop.
