Australian Turbulent Plans

The Ultra Light Aircraft Association (in australia) guys did a mod to the standard Turbulent that increased the spar strength and added a second mainspar support.
Cockpit is still the restricted size that suits a 5 ft tall Roger Druine though.

the plans were available from the "australian plans holder" for the cost of printing off the dyeline prints. from memory Gordon in melbourne was the guy.
When The SAAA changed structure to chapters and "experimental" they seemed to forget all about the old system of plans holders, which is sad really.

anyway in the interests of keeping the knowledge here are links to images of the australian turbulent plans.

falconar in canada used to sell copies of turbulent plans, maybe they still do.
their plans had no dihedral dimensions on them and in conjunction with a mate in the USA we gave falconar the missing details.

AT-01 the 3 view and specifications. none of the contact details on the page are valid now.

I believe the images posted are good enough to build from.
I ended up doing my build from a computer screen with the images enlarged to show the detail I was working on.

DONT MIX THE PLANS.
either build from the french plans or build from the australian plans.
