Two glider fuselage ? in the hangar at Shipdham ???? The first has a registration on the side ! have tried all combinations, from what I can see, in G-INFO and … nothing ….. ?
And a very poor first photo of what I think is a glider ?????
The second photo is the tail end of same a/c but what ??

The last photo is certainly a Dart 17R BGA1268. C/N 1487.

K8B. Thank you for that, your comment on pic 1 from today is, I assume, confirmed by what I have just found on a photo of the tail fin ? see the small print at the bottom …..

Red & white fuselage (pic 1) is a Dart 15, BGA 1268.
Pic 2: BRE is a Slingsby Swallow (BGA 1167).
Pink Panther I think is a Schleicher K8.
3rd pic looks something like a K13, but is more likely a K7 modified to ASK 13 standard. . .

Newforest. We get fed up tripping over Q6’s around here 😀 (what is a Q6 ?) Oh and your registration for the 1st photo in thread was, of course, correct, said glider was exposed today !
Fournier Boy. Thank you for your help, as you may have read above my eyesight (like most of my parts) is not what it used to be

First one Elfe PM3, not sure of one on trailer in second pic but think other in second pic is a slingsby swallow. Last pic is a K13

Glider ID Required (updated)
Newforest. UUMM ! Yes “SHOULD HAVE GONE TO SPECKSAVERS” Looked at all possible registration options !!!! but never thought the fourth letter was J ???? ….. Why ????? Thank you !
WB981. Well as you may have seen Newforest agrees with you on the first photo, nice to see two options for the second, thank you !

Photo 1 is a scheibe SF26. The other 2 photos are of a Scheibe SF25 or Slingsby T61 Venture.

It is obviously Scheibe SF26A!:D
Why not try G-DEJZ?;)
Not what it used to be? Eyesight?:)
