  • ­After seeing John Woodfields vintage Super Sinbad slope soarer, I realized that the light air ship I didn’t have was waiting for me back in the 1940’s. The Super Sinbad’s 93” is a little too big for my LZ, so I fired up Rhino 3D and scratched out an 80” wingspan with a balsa and carbon tow construction method and a flatbottom airfoil. Besides that, everything else looks about the same as the original, unless you’re a purist, in which case I changed everything.

      At one point there was a 93" version on Ebay. Other than that, I can't help you. I scratch built this one.

      Bonjour Patrick. My plans are loosely based upon the original smaller glider that is readily available on the internet. Maybe a link to my build log will encourage you to design your own version. www.rcgroups.com/forums/member.php?u=116172
