Now if it just had one of those self launch things in the back it would be
perfect... Just jealous I suppose. Bruce -- I'm no-T at the address above. -+- \_________0________/ |

Bruce, I'm really worried about your glider below!!
According to my calculations one wing is longer than the other ;-) Depending on whether we are looking at the tail or the nose it's gonna be doing right of left hand circles all the time. Did it pass a CofA ? Malcolm.... "Bruce" wrote in message ... Now if it just had one of those self launch things in the back it would be perfect... Just jealous I suppose.

There is a story in "Scientific Intelligence in WW2" by R V Jones about an HE 111 which was built by the British at Farnborough from bits of shot down HE111's When they came to test flying it, it seemed to be almost uncontrollable. They got a co-operative Luftwaffe P.O.W to have a look. He took one glance and burst out laughing. It seems there were 2 versions of this plane, one of which had slightly longer wings. You've guessed it, one wing from each version. -- Mike Lindsay |
