We also have the assistance of Albert. He is a great supporter of our association. he was 11 in 1944 when he saw operation Dragoon gliders landing in front of his farm. 2 weeks after he went in these abandonated gliders to play in it and understand their technology. His memory is absolutly amazing and he is one of the last able to help in glider technology.
L'aileron dorsal de notre projet planeur réalisé avec l’aide du Fighting Falcon Museum de Greenville, Michighan.
Fabriqué à partir et avec des pièces originales trouvées dans le sud de la France et partout dans le monde, les plans et dessins originaux convertis par de notre ami Franck DUGAS, le "Dorsal fin" réalisé en un temps record malgré sa complexité en avril, mai et juin 2024.
Nous avons également l’aide d’Albert. Il est un grand supporter de notre association. Il avait 11 ans en 1944 lorsqu’il a vu les planeurs de ce jour J Provence atterrir devant sa ferme. 2 semaines après Albert passé ses journées dans ces planeurs abandonnés pour y jouer, comprendre leur fonctionnement. Sa mémoire est absolument étonnante et il est l’un des derniers à pouvoir nous aider dans la technologie des planeurs Waco. Merci Albert
