Vintage Minimoa & Slingsby Petrel Formation Flight Over Harris Hill - ISVM 2024
Extremely rare, a 1938 Göppingen Gö 3 Minimoa and a 1939 Slingsby T.13 Petrel fly in formation over Harris Hill, New York, at the 2024 International Vintage Soaring Meet. Willy Hackett flies the Minimoa owned by Jerry Wenger and Graham Saw pilots the 1939 Slingsby T.13 Petrel which is part of the collection of the Western Antique Airplane and Automobile Museum. This Petrel is only one of two flying examples in existence and the Minimoa is the only one still flying in the U.S.

The Göppingen Gö 3 Minimoa is a single-seat sailplane produced in Germany and designed by Martin Schempp and Wolf Hirth. Out of only three built, Slingsby Petrel BGA651, the final aircraft of the series, remains airworthy in 2024. It was restored by its owner, Graham Saw. It flies regularly at Vintage Glider Club meetings and has been displayed at Old Warden on Shuttleworth Collection open days. A second Petrel, BGA418, has been restored back to its original varnished look and has flown at various glider meets throughout the U.S.. It can be seen on display, at the Western Antique Aeroplane and Automobile Museum WAAAM museum in Hood River, Oregon.
Thanks to the Harris Hill & WAAAM crew members which helped with filming logistics.

You video is helping me with my first model in this class, it is the Orion as luck would have it. Question, you keep referring to “black CA”… is this just black colored CA or is there more to it? Thanks!

      Black CA is a thick CA that has powdered rubber added to make the glue more flexible and shock resistant, good for gluing push rods.

    What the hell happened to Estes Rockets??? When I was a kid 50 years ago those rockets went WAY higher than they do now. Even with the lesser powered engines. Most of the rockets I had went so high you could barely see them even after the parachute would open. Well another case of everything being better back then but at the time we didn't know it.

    • @pnaton
      @pnaton Před 9 měsíci

      The ESC is only rated for 3S. The stock hub will not handle the increased rpms- Change the ESC, hub and prop, and Radian will be fine on 4S.

      @@pnaton Perhaps I should make myself some 3S LiIon packs. My greatest concern is the motor: if it can handle the 4S current pulses. RPM's are easy to limit with throttle limiting and the ESC label has a rating of 3-4S.

      The Petrel is one of my all time favorite sailplanes. I never dreamed I would ever have the chance to fly one, since only two exist out of three built: this one (second one built) and one in England (third one built). Then this one was part of a collection of vintage gliders donated to WAAAM, where I am a volunteer pilot. I am so incredibly honored to be entrusted with this priceless jewel. IVSM 2021 was the first time I was able to fly her the way she was designed: away from the traffic pattern, in prolonged soaring flight! I think her handling, she flies better than she looks. She is incredibly quiet inside during flight. Fred did everything right on this design. From the Colonies, I salute you and your family!
