Hi,


Thanks for the response. I've been having a quick look at the Slingsby T.3 since your post and there is a striking resemblance.Very possibly you have correctly identified the glider.However I'm also considering if it isn't the case that both the Japanese machine and the T.3 have a common German ancestor,the Zögling. The Grunau 9 and the SG.38 all look a bit like the Japanese machine too.I had initially thought that the last two had a strut in front of the pilot, hence skull splitter, but I see from looking at photos that appears not always to be the case.


Regards,


Clint
