Hello Petr

A very nice model, congrats in deed. The "Olympia Meise" is part of my own hstory. Many years ago we had an original one in our local glider club and in the second half of the seventies I did my "Silver C" with it. I remember best my flight from Hersbruck do Bayreuth - 54 km with landing on the "airport" Bindlacher-Berg without radio contact........

But - I can not identify the "profile" of your fuselage on your pictures. The original one was not "totaly round" but had an edge on top and at the bottom of the fuselage. The first model I see in the german FMT was totally round and this feature was overtaken by a lot of builders..... but I would guess that was "not original" and perhaps only a unique feature of one Meise ?? Our Meise had edges and my friends, the "builders" in our club told me this was so in the original plans.
you can easily identify this "edge" at this document:

how is the "shape" or fuselage of your Meise??

Greetings,

thank you for the compliment. It is beautiful silver C on such a nice glider Olympia.
Construction model is and building its own plan. Profile ribs of the wing is also mine.
I know that there are small differences.
The flight characteristics are good and I am satisfied.
