Sisu Polar Data?
Hi,
I have a customer that is looking for polar data for a Sisu to enter into a Cambridge 302. We can't seem to find anything. Does anyone know of a source for that data? Best Regards, -- Paul Remde Cumulus Soaring, Inc. |

Best Regards, -- Paul Remde Cumulus Soaring, Inc. paul, not exactly what you are looking for but the data may be able to be backed out of the graph on page 11 of the sept. 1964 Soaring. and also Paul Bikle's article "Flight Test Performance Summary" has a polar for the Sisu 1 and 1A. Page 30 of the Feb. 1971 Soaring. By the way that edition also has a fantastic story about a low altitude cross country flight in a Cherokee II. |

Sisu Polar Data?
I have a customer that is looking for polar data for a Sisu to enter into a Cambridge 302. *We can't seem to find anything. *Does anyone know of a Sisu, or Sisu 1A? Different polars... Johnson's polars for the Sisu are available, and I think I have copies of the relevant pages from the MSU Raspet FRL report they did using 102, Al Parker's ship now in the Smithsonian. If not I have plenty of other data to draw from later if still needed. -Paul |

Sisu Polar Data?
Hi Paul,
I owned a SISU for quite some time and I do have a polar. The polar was published in the brochure. Best regards, Hans Disma "Paul Remde" schreef in bericht ...

Sisu Polar Data?
Hi Paul,
I have asked the customer and he says he has a Sisu 1A. Any help finding a good polar would be greatly appreciated. Best Regards, Paul Remde "sisu1a" wrote in message ...

Sisu Polar Data?
I have asked the customer and he says he has a Sisu 1A. *Any help finding a good polar would be greatly appreciated. Just dug through my bag of goodies and found the MSU Sisu 1A (measured!) polar I was talking about. I have scanned it and PM'd you a copy. I have a lot lot lot of information your customer will be interested in and you should pass my email to him/her. I still own 101, it's just banged up pretty good. I believe I have the largest private accumulation of ephemera on the subject, down to copies of Len Niemi's security clearance background check paperwork! I visited with Len's daughter for a day a few years back, and we spent the whole time digging through boxes of paperwork, pictures, family albums. Oh the things I saw! Luckily she let me make copies of some of the stuff, as its real gold to me... like a complete copy of his notes from his slide presentation on the Sisu he did in 1985 at the SSA convention as the keynote speaker, and the letter Bruce Carmicheal sent him inviting him to do so! -Paul |
