Use the right mouse button to download the file. It's a Windows Media
File. Caution: 20 MB!

Saw that when the thread about the Ventus data base was active a couple
weeks ago. Found it when I was looking for Serial No 290 (IIRC) that
was "modified to jet power". Never found full size info. though.

It looked like there was a camera mounted on the glider. That movie
probably did not survive the crash.

The tape may have survived when he rolled it he must have done some damage
then did not look so good.

I'm slow, I didn't realize it was a 1/2 scale "model" Ventus until the
very end, when they were carrying the remains. The "9M wingspan"
confused me, as it did not appear to have clipped wings. Oh well, I'm
glad no live beings were hurt in the production of this movie 8^)

What a spectacular model and flight, however, no matter how short lived!
