  Fauvel AV 36 by Tony Angus

  
Reviews

The full-size Fauvel AV 36 was developed as a single-seat glider in France in 1951, and immediately gained an enthusiastic following with its outstanding flying characteristics and unprecedented inherent stability. Several distance flights of up to 500 km were achieved. The AV 361 presented here was introduced in 1960 as a more refined successor to the AV 36, differing primarily in its enlarged wingspan and improved airfoil. Modeled to quarter scale gives the glider a wingspan of 3.2 mtrs. Available as a kit through West London Models.
