| Heinrich Dorfmann | Guillows Series 300 - Series Pilatus Porter | Parked | 30-Jun-13 12:13 |  | | Views : 737 | | Phantom Pharewell in Wittmund, Germany. After more than 40 years of service, the F-4 Phantom II of the German Luftwaffe was finally retired this weekend. Jagdgeschwader 71 "Richthofen" was the last squadron to fly the "Luftverteidungsdiesel" (air defence diesel). It will now be replaced by the Eurofighter. Photo is one of my plastics, a model of really bad quality, in the old Norm-72 colors. There are a lot of (copyright protected) photos on airliners.net and a lot of nice video clips on youtube; they had a fly-in on Saturday in Wittmund. |

| Heinrich Dorfmann | SIG Riser 100 Sailplane | Parked | 05-May-13 12:59 |  | | Views : 1004 | | The plane took a rough tree landing, the right outer wing is gone, have to rebuild it. Tail is torn off but will be glued in place. All R/C equipment and electric equipment seems to be o.k. |
| Heinrich Dorfmann | SIG Riser 100 Sailplane | Parked | 05-May-13 12:57 |  | | Views : 856 | | Meanwhile, my electric glider found it's way back home. Very funny story. At 7 a.m. today in the morning, I went out to search a large field of canola (?) for my plane. Searching a model plane with translucent yellow wings in a yellow field is no fun. I found a plane - but it wasn't mine. I returned it to our little hut in the middle of the field. In the afternoon I got a phone call - the very owner of the plane I had found had gone out to search for himself - and had found my plane. |
