ga hamilcar gliders
 

has any one seen or heard of any line drawings, plans or good 3 view drawings of this glider? i have a number of war time pictures and some side view drawings from various sites on the net. i even have partial drawings / dimentions of the cargo area but no good views of the tail, cockpit or the nose door. i have been told that there was a good articial in an old airfix mag (jan 1970 vol 11 no5) if any one has a copy i would love to see it. i have found that there is a resin (planet models) and a vacform (sanger models) available in 1/72 scale. but due to their cost i am leaning towards trying to build one from scratch. i have been interested in the d day landings for years. i am slowly building up info on things i dont have the models of. i nearly have all the info to complete the 79th arm div and now trying to find the gliders to go with. i'll just have to make sure i live for the next 20 year to finnish building all the variants i have info on or want to compleate, thanks in advance for any help.

Hey mate, have you got a name so that we don't feel awkward addressing you as "Mr. Pand" or "Mr. 65au"?

Thanks,

Jif

sorry about that my name's peter

Thanks!
 

No worries mate... it's just that here we frown upon those who insist on remaining anonymous - even just a first name is OK, because it shows your 'human' side. We like to think we've worked hard to make this a safe and comfortable community where all who are truly interested in the work we do can feel at home. :)
