    I would like to open a discussion on delta wing type aircraft
    
    I purchased a Hobby Lobby Delta 40 about three or four years
    ago because the picture looked so good and I was curious.
    Well, when the kit arrived, I looked it over and found that it
    was recommended that the plane should be flown without a landing
    gear.  Since I don't have a grass flying field, I decided to put
    the kit away for a while and maybe figure something out later.
    
    I've never flown a delta, and would like to hear from some of you
    who have had the experience.

| Ivan Munninghoff, a member of our club, did an article on deltas in Flying Models a few months ago. A copy is yours for the price of a mail message with your mailstop. Ivan is very keen on deltas, and has several models including a couple of nice F-102s to show for it. I've never seen him fly ducted fan, since our high altitude is very marginal for the planes. | |||||

    Thanks.  I'll send you my mail stop via vaxmail.
    
    By the way, where is your flying field.
    I'm in Albuquerque, N.M., and we're at approx. 5,000 ft.
