Tipsy Nipper (Jabiru Powered) Cassutt IIIM Racer I know I'm not the only one to have flown these types....come on own up! |
Ah yes, Tipsy Nipper. A look back shows I missed a couple of types off my list. One got the feeling that if the wings started to come off, you could grasp the tips firmly and hold on.
|
Seems a lot as I look back but compared to many it's a few. They're so spread out over the years that they seem few to me too to be honest.
