The Indoor Aeroplane

The Swedish indoor scale championships 2006

As the main Swedish indoor champs coincided with the Oldtimer-champs, it had been decided to postpone the scale classes until later. The scale competition took place in November, in the Kumla Sporthall. In addition to the scale classes a few duration classes were also flown, but without national championship status.

There was a quite good turnout, with 13 peanuts and 4 pistachios in the results. Most of the models were built with traditional techniques (tissue covered balsa framework), but Hartstein's HP Sayers peanut and Pontan's Lacey pistachio used mylar covering, while Johan Wallin entered two foam models. Below are some photos (by Johan and Andrea) of most of the competitng scale models. The results can be found on the bottom of the page.
