Let straighten this out:
Gees , don't yous guys know what a Lijnbesturing  is ! .  S?P
'Lijnbesturing' stands for Control Line, actually Line Control, so 'A' lijnbesturing doesn't exist.... ;)

http://www.modelbouwforum.nl/forums/lijnbesturing/207652-orion.html
This is a link to the Dutch forum, CL department, to a building thread of someone who hasn't got the slightest clue, he started making things first, then asked if it was ok. We had to disappoint him time after time.

bit of a coincidence - Id seen it on Brunos site , ( the site Ees on ) ASk for Droopy  :! ;D
Its not MY site, it's the Dutch modelling forum. Droopy has no clue, he is constructing a probably very unflyable Orion lookalike. You don't want his drawing, believe me.
What you'd need is Peter's original plan. He made it on the '68 Gieseke Nobler plan that Paul Tupker made round 1969-1970. I can put you in touch if you'd want.
ACTUALLY , I think Bruno ? put me in touch with him Via Email . If Id known he was going to do that ( laser Cut ) I would've bludged a set .
A picture was in the Aeromudler  World Champs report , when he was a young whippersnapper . Always appreciated its clean lines- Orion .
We all were snapping whippers back then (I think). Most of us could be grandpas by now (I'm not ;D)

Hi Bruno
Sure itīs 101% OFF-TOPIC but I canīt resist to post this because,

'If you think there's something about my English, you're right. I'm Dutch... '
But I DO play Stunt and I DO fly Bluegrass.



By the way ,
I met Paul Tupker as a visitor at "Bochum Int.Contest" way back in the seventees
flying his orange silkspan covered with clear green canopy "Grondal Nobler".

I hate pessimists, I prefer optimists.
Impossible is done immediately, miracles take longer.
I don't care who your father is ......... as long as I fly here,
Nobody walks, runs, floats or flies across my circle ......... not even to fetch fish, wine or bread.
