I stand corrected on the foam fuse issue, patently there are far older people than me on this forum
I have to say that both Weihes (is that truly a plural - or is it a brace of Weihe ?) look really nice as does the Lo100. Gliders are so much prettier than 'powered' models (that's surely a contentious comment
)

As it's German, I'd guess at Weihen....... but then, my abilities in the language peaked at gaining a B at O level 41 years ago.
But I agree that there are lots of pretty gliders I'd like to build....

That´s completely correct, in German the plural of Weihe is Weihen.

Finally ready for a test flight - pilot added as well as some coloured trim on the fin & rudder. ....
Pleased to report test flights went very well - shall post pics soon. Those wings sure do bend on the bungee, even with fibreglass tape reinforcement on the bottom of the wing

Alas, my beloved turned the video off when I launched and on again when I picked the aeroplane up after it's flight

Best to stick with the head-mounted GoPro I think
