Nostalgia - My first tow plane !

(1/2) > >>

Fred:
Look what I've found !
Photos of my first tow plane. And the second one from my old club.
God this little beast towed more planes than I can remember !  :D









Getting old...  :roll:

IceWind:
Nice looking planes.

Is the first one from Flair?

Fred:
Thanks !
Photos are at least 10 years old  :?:
The first one, is a "Burda" piper, very old kit from Graupner. Kit must have at least 20 years old.
Can't remember how I get my hands on it.
Was a very good horse !
Another shot :

IceWind:
I ask this because a friend gave me a kit for build, well actually was started already for a glow powered plane.
And at first it looked just like that one, it's from flair. And he had it for very long time...

Thats the model:

My idea was to convert it finish of course, but to convert it to electric.

Fred:
Yeah they look quiet similar.

Mine was originaly blue and white, well, with the Burda scheme.
That was a German aerobatic display team on modified Piper  :shock:
The Graupner Burda Piper was modified like the real ones.
On it's second life, I change it to the white scheme you see on the photos, without the wheel pants.


Not mine, but the same !
