Frisch Wilga restoration

(1/3) > >>

rogallo:
About 2 years ago I was asked to find homes for a bunch of large powered planes and I thought to my self, how hard could that be?

Anyway the Wilga was to go to Fred but alas when he saw the size of it, he retreated.

So about 2 weeks ago I though I would cut the tailplane off and put it in my attic, with the many wonders that are already stored there. then I decided to take the UC off and now I have decided to refurbish it and hopefully fly next year as a tug.

Here are some pictures of the work so far.....

Kevin O'Donoghue:
Great to see Ralph. One of my favourite planes. Would love to have bought a Black Horse 20cc Wilga but not available now. Can't wait to see it fly......

Alan_Perse:
Looks like you have your work cut out for you.
Looking forward to seeing it fly. Maybe you can tow my Vega, if I ever finish it

rogallo:
Thanks Alan,

hoping for Early spring, or as soon as I can spray the fuselage.

Big model but easy to work on with power tools!!

Vega I thought you had that done, or was that the Slingsby???

rogallo:
More sanding this evening
