Wow Mike, that is a nice one!

I don't have one yet (model sailplane) but I do have TR period plans for a couple of them. I hope to build one some day SOON.

Mike, Very nice ... I have been looking for that (scarce & expensive) postcard for some time.

It looks like the 2 model gliders in the photo are actually flying ....

Mike, I have to be honest, I do not own that post card, I had a chance to buy it but ..... I blame myself

Very cool! I finally found and purchased that Frankfurt a/Main postcard (above) also tough to find and expensive. One of my favorite pieces.

Goes great with this badge.

I would like to build one like the one the guy is holding in the Frankfurt a/Main postcard. Is that the glider you have plans for?

That's a saalflugmodelle , a type of model airplane designed to fly indoors only. It is powered by a rubber band, with a highly effective propeller that rotates at a slow rpm. These flew very slowly and were precisely trimmed to gradually climb in a big circle all the way to the ceiling, circle several times and when the rubber band ran down, the little plane would slowly descend in a large circle, back to the ground. The competition was about endurance, meaning how long the plane could stay in the air. Along with several other factors.

I don't have plans for the TR versions, but there are modern versions available that are nearly identical in appearance and performance. I've seen them fly, pretty amazing. I'm sure I can find the plans or a kit if you are interested.
