Re: Giants From South Africa

Who is going flying on Monday. I thought of organising another PRF flyin but the access road to RPF is under construction.

I will more than likely go out to Helderberg to get some flights in.

Desprately looking for edge plans at the momnet I have a 33% edge Hanger 9 in the box I am wanting to build a 50% I can scale up the hanger 9 but a set of plans would sure help.

Cheers

Dion

It also doesnt help when you have ten left thumbs. I will try to bring a sloper with me when I am down there.

Bring a Zagi or atleast some sort of foamy. some of the landing sites are really tough, but hell they teach you how to put something where you want it in the wind.

Yup foam core wings with ply body. Light and strong.
