The Zanonia was a beautiful little gull-wing, 14 meter, stick & fabric,
sailplane that John Robinson flew in winning the US Championships in '40, '41
and '46. John Robinson was awarded the Worlds FIRST Diamond badge for flights
made in his Zanonia.

I am building a replica of this historic sailplane and would like any leads on
spruce, mahogany plywood (1/16 & 3/32) and some metel work. An un-built Duster
kit would go a long way towards obtaining the needed materials. If you know of
an Un-built kit, please have the owner get in touch with me. I'm prepared to
pay $1500, or so.

Thanks for your help,
JJ Sinclair

Hey, great job on the Super Albatross -- you're a genius! Good luck on
your quest.
