Default SAGITTA

Is there anybody out there who can give me some information about the
whereabouts of the 5 Sagitta's that have been flying in the USA? The Sagitta
is Dutch built wooden glider from the sixties. Only 20 built in total and
few flying remain. I am trying to gather the history of most of them for a
website.
These are the reg. numbers (probably)
N6446
N12DC(17 metre version)
N88988 (low canopy & retractable gear)
N12199
N9121
All help appreciated!
Cheers,
Robert Smits (Sagitta s/n 10 ZK-GDO)

If this does not open for you, go to landings.com and
use there multiple options search in data bases, for
US ac. It lists them.

There is one at our club - just finally getting its extensive overhaul completed
by its meticulois A&P owner.

I know of two others in South Africa, both in pretty tired condition.
