Not really. I have plans for a Slingsby Skylark 143" ws I'll be building this winter. Another will soon take to the sky's again.

Byliśmy 15 lat po wojnie, mielismy zniszczone wszystko, bylismy pod okpacją sowiecką, a nasi Polscy🇵🇱 konstruktorzy tworzyli takie piękne rzeczy, czego właśnie przykładem jest FOKA! Mam taki model Foki, i cieszę się, że jest tak popularny na świecie! Twój model jest piękny! Gratuluję😀✌

So beautiful a glider!Sincere congrats and cheers from France!

Whats the music? it’a terrible.

Fantastic Movie 🛩😊👍📽💯Magic...Location 🛩 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Simply gorgeous sailplanes! Beautifully done!

1 Min 30 Sek:.................sauknapp geworden beim "Durchsaufen" (obwohl 3 Leute beim Start helfen !!)

Damn this plane is beautiful!

I’m liking this in advance of watching it

I've never been a fan of gull wing gliders... but this model is gorgeous and I can't deny they do fly very good. Looks like she could use larger air brakes because she just wants to fly.

Well done! Beautiful plane! TNX 73...

beautiful as always

Wowzer🇦🇺😝🦘

Love the video and the model 5⭐️

show !!!!!!!

The music completes the video. 😊

For me, the Petrel is arguably the most beautiful sailplane ever. As a fullsize sailplane pilot this is the plane I would most like to have flown. And I'm a big Jeff Beck fan. The photography and editing here was stunning and the pilots head turning really added to the realism (glider pilots have their heads on swivels!). Great piece of work from the prolific Chris Williams and the filming and production crew. 👍

Ich bin gerade dabei einen zu bauen

Show de Imagens !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It reminds me of the Sedberghs. But those you fly sitting next to each other. Why not build this 1:1 and flying yourself? There's hardly any difference.

How many scale sailplanes has this man scratch built - I've completely lost track. Quite phenomenal, and he's a musician and video maker also it seems! 👍

T49 Capstan next then? Happy memories in that one. . . . .

Always good to see something from Mr Williams. Any chance you do some detailed build sessions?

Marvelous

That’s blown out the winter blues- right where’s the ‘Williams 3rd scale T-31 plan I bought ?? Remortgage the house - I’m building it!!🤣👌🏻👌🏻

Lovely job Chris. The strut-work looks like it must have been a trial. You have been busy recently with video editing, almost as though you had nothing on the bench!!

The original 1/4 scale Pirat was slightly older than me, and i'm 53. The germans banned it from competition because it was too big. !!!! I still have a 1/4 Pirat, and the 1/3 version built by Kevin Wilson. And i hope to publish the video one day of the Pirat and Grunau race to the ground video. The 'October Do' at White Horse model club, was the greatest aero tow meeting in the country at the time.

Chris what is the model of the onboard camera? She is great !

Chris is there a plan available for this ?

I'm here for the Aircrafts and the music Currently debating whether to build a minimoa balsa stocks I have may not be enough.

Nice! 👍

Congratulations Chris..always very beautiful and spectacular videos.

Beautiful model and can't believe how prolific Chris Williams is! We had a Pirat syndicate at my gliding club. I recall that (like a lot of Polish gliders, by design) it spun well. That could be a danger for inexperienced pilots though. Also, although it had a a reasonable L/D, it was a bit heavy (did the fullsize have a fully sheeted wing - so long ago I can't remember?) and its poor sink rate meant it was best suited to days with strong thermals.

Magnifique

Super 😎 👍

A work of art Mr Williams .

Beautiful!

Cool cool cool - awesome👌🏻🔥

chris what camera did you have on the model

Beautiful! Would you say the Jr is as agile as the Slingsby Petrel that you had doing rolls?

& do the hassle of going all the way down the hill& bring it up.. My cheap chineese WLtoys 200$ plane gives 200 times more fun...Life is short get hi intensity pleasures !

Very nice what did you cover it in and what camera did you use on wing cheers

Just beautiful. Takes me back to the days when I flew a full Skylark 3. Happy days.

Boy, I like that glider, flew it a couple of times...

I am now the proud owner of this model and it flies superbly 😊

So my grandfather groom restored a real glider like your model yeah restored it right before he was surrendered his pilot's license it's sitting now in the Pima Air and Space for the looks just like the one you got except for its 15 and 18 it's in my avatar

That’s a beaut Chris 👍🏻😊

Concerning the painting of the yellow/white Minimoa with the „8“ at the tail, compare the modified and in Germany allowed „Swastikas“ of the Messerschmitts of „Hangar 10“ at the isle of Usedom, Germany.

Amazing!
