I am totally new to this newsgroup, but very interested. I am looking for some plans to build a Speedwing. I have some of my own ideas, but I would much rather build a proven kite first, then try a variation later. I hope there is someone out there that can point me in the right direction.

The Speedwing design in Stuntkites II is a improved design. So if you want to make one use this design. There's also a computerprogram to print out the plans and to adjust the size. see you, Emiel Stroeve http://www.euronet.nl/users/mielse/index.html = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Date: Fri, 24 Nov 1995 19:26:43 -1000 From: jervin@inmind.com (James Ervin) Message-Id: <49666j$u4_001@everything.inmind.com> Organization: In Mind, Inc.
