Yes, it does fly. It's not spectacular but has done 19 seconds. Reaction of one person at the field when told it was a Guillow's 500 series Stuka, "Now I've seen it. Pigs can fly!"

Great picture Howard, always good to see a rubber free-flight fly. How do the undercarriage survive the grass landings? Great looking Stuka, interesting colours.

If you look at the picture of the completed, uncovered frame, you can see that I left the rib at the bend of the wing, where the landing gear is attached, solid and added reinforcing struts inside the wing. The landing gear struts are a three part lamination with the outer pieces on either side of the rib when installed.

Is this at the grassy knoll, Howard? It looks like a great place.

Yes, this is the place. I'm standing about in the middle of it in the photo. A little different from the park you fly in.

But what a beautiful park it is. Plane is great also.
