Default Looking for video of glider spinning in wind tunnel

A couple of years ago there was a video of a V-tailed glider spinning in a
vertical wind tunnel. I believe this was of French origin.

The model had about a six ft wingspan; the tester simply tossed into the
wind tunnel in the spinning position and this could be maintained
indefinitely.

I cannot find a link and am looking for this video. The copy I saved is
now corrupt. Any hep is appreciated.
