Hi Vince,
About Pellicano, you may ask well known Italian modeller Giulio Cornia (also a subscriber in this forum, but maybe he is in holydays in threse days) that buildt this great vintage beauty; you can see pics and other stuff in its own website, http://www.corniaaeromodelli.com/gallery.htm


A.l.3: a rare picture

Thanks for the link and photo

you're welcome:D

Hi Vince,
see attached 2 photos of the Pellicano; it's not easy to find pictures of this sailplane. I am actually building one Pellicano model based on the Giulio Cornia model, slightly modified (approx 3 m wingspan)
