Another rarity at Meier Motors

Very interesting.

It looks like the one of the Max Vogelsang’s family: is there a new owner?

Must admit that I prefer the gawky appearance of the 3605,

Each to their own, I suppose. Plus the Schlepps smell funny, a bit like a paraffin lamp. :p

but doesn’t that place look like utter aviation heaven?!

They certainly do seem to always have some interesting projects on the go.

I wondered what had happened to that one. It will be good to see it back in the air again, a rare and unusual machine, and so much better looking (and sounding!) than the Schlepp.

I like the proportions of the original (C-3603) one powered with Hispano-Suiza engine much better than the later conversion with Lycoming turboprop (C-3605). It looks more …… fitting.
