There's a syndicated one at Parham. I believe it's going to the next vintage
festival somewhere in eastern Europe. the Syndicate has just had an
aluminium box trailer manufactured that is a work of art apart from being
large enough to park 3 or 4 smart cars in!

Hi, due to the current UK problems with flying K7's we have resurrected
our
Capstan.

Having had a first flight in it today I'm surprised at how good it was.
Yes
of course it's wooden and doesn't penetrate as well as glass! But it
more
than makes up for that when thermalling......

I hear that very few were built (less than 60?), and only about 10 are
left
flying. Is this the case, is it possible to find out where the rest of
them
are.

There was a thread on the uk.rec.aviation.soaring group about this a
few months ago, try searching the archives for this.
