    Description

    PLANS ONLY - NOT A KIT
    Tiger Shark
    (1939, Stanzel)
    36" wingspan for 1/5 HP engine (Brown Jr Ignition on plan sheet)
    The
    Tiger Shark
    model was flown with a single control line (Guide Line), approximately 50' long. The airplane was controlled by attaching one end of the control line to the tip of an outrigger, fixed forward of the leading edge of the wing, and attaching the other end to the tip of a control pole. By moving the tip of the control pole up and down, applying pressure about the center of gravity, the airplane could noose up and down, climbing and diving in flight.
