"MOTOR-BLANIK Mk11"

(Also see "The Other VB")

Another Bert Persson masterpiece of years gone by!

In gliding mode with prop feathered.

The cowl was open during engine run and closed on shut down.

Digital video wasn't around in those days! The configurartion shown wasn't too bad. However, imagine a wingtip mount of the camera counter- balanced by a weight slung under the opposite wing (so as to be out of view) and then doing aerobatics!

A somewhat younger Bert prepares his creation ...and then beats up the field ...see below!
