Schweizer 1-26, thirteen years later!

[Wight]

Well that didn't take long....

After a very long hiatus from flying, I'm finally back to it. First order of business was to finally finish my 1-26A and clear my building board. 1/4 scale, good outline but wing structure isn't terribly accurate. From the Steve Moskal plan and built with the help of an old Skybench Aerotech short kit.

That is quite some model Wight!! Is there any updates on it please, like photos of it in the air?

I too have been away from modeling for 13+ years and getting back in to it. Still a little while until I can get back to building due to a house move, but my unfinished job is a 1/4 scale Habiche. I have some photos of it and when I can find them I will post.

But I would love to know how you are getting on with yours!

The Habicht!

One day I'll make one!

With some luck Fred one day I'll get around to finishing this one   

One of the interesting parts was bending the 3/8" square main spares on the 'gull wing' camber change. They run root to tip top and bottom. Just as well it's a fairly gentle bend!
