Default Open Jantar 1 - Tailplane Fitting

Folk,

We have to replace the tailplane fitting of our Open Jantar 1 19M sailplane
as part of our 30 year service. Ours is one of the original prototypes and
we would like to get a photo of the following for a production version of
the aircraft please, just to validate that there were no changes between the
prototype and the production version :

1. Tailplane fitting (ie: the fork that engages with the fin)
2. Fitting in the fin, with which the tailplane fork engages

Any assistance would be gratefully received.

Best Regards,
Mike

You might also want to check other Jantar models. A colleague of mine
has a Jantar Standard and the tailplane fitting appears identical to
that in my early production Jantar-1 (I sold it years ago, so am
relying on memory). Many components were shared between models and
perhaps one of our Polish readers could confirm this.
