The most detailed Pacific D-8 information I have found is in the directory http://vula2.org/images/land_planes/Pacific-D-8-glider/ It appears only three were built. One of them is currently at the Harris Hill Soaring Museum. The odds are small that you will find a set of drawing floating around. Wayne HP-14 "6F" http://www.soaridaho.com/ |

Wayne HP-14 "6F" http://www.soaridaho.com/ I assume you mean the National Soaring Museum, on Harris Hill. ![]() Our Pacific D-8 has been deaccessioned. It has a one-piece wing, which is very long and difficult to transport. It's going to be painted and put on display near the driving range at Harris Hill Park. It's in rough enough condition that a few golf ball hits now and then wouldn't be noticeable. There are no ugly gliders, but the Pacific D-8 wouldn't win any beauty contests. |
