At Last It's 'ere!!

Friday 17th Feb

The fuz for the Tanga arrived at work today. I couldn't get home fast enough to plug the tail and wings in to see how it looks.....






After a very quick check the fuselage is better quality than the first one but to be honest it is still a little disappointing. The seams are not great, there are a few marks and the canopy could fit better. The request to strengthen the nose has resulted in some extra glass cloth but it is definately stronger. I will still look to put some carbon tow in for extra strength and a much thicker servo board.

Plan is to be flying it again within 2 weeks. I miss flying this glider, it is superb.
