Thanks Peter.

I first got to meet Sean Bannister in the early '80s as he was a source of information for my final year aeronautical engineering degree project
on optimising the design of F3b models. I saw Sean fly the Algebra in Hillingdon and at a F3b comp in Oxford so seeing this thread has brought back many memories!

Mike,
Note that this thread deals with the new Algebra (cruciform tail) whilst the new Algebra 8 has more swept back wings and a T tail. Both have ailerons & flaps & should be available through Cliff.

I work at a secondary school and yesterday a colleague brought me some neatly rolled plans he’d found whilst clearing out the design and technology dept cupboards. Yep...plans for a 2.5m Algebra kit from I guess the late 80s. Nobody has the first idea how they got there. Maybe a former pupil built one as a project?

The plans themselves probably aren’t much use to anyone now you can get a shiny modern kit from Cliff, but if you want them just pm me your postal address. They’re about 2ft x 3ft.
