For those capable of speaking German:

The German aviation monthly “Aerokurier” will have an article on the Alpensegler next month (according to the preview on next month’s edition in the current, April, issue)!

Have you asked anybody on the Vintage Glider Club on FaceBook? A lot of people look on that. It may be of some help.

Unglücklicherweise ich habe kein deutsch – mais non, c’est un sujet allemand sur un site internet français – oh well, I must just have missed it – so I’m sorry, Martin!

Both thanks for the information, but knew that already.
The information I ask for is not to find, so I need help.

I can’t help you on the specific points mentioned but I assume that you are aware of the film of the flight (http://www.filmarchives-online.eu/viewDetailForm?FilmworkID=4b8036e4e46c9e2ec2df3aa2f48d571c&content_tab=eng&set_language=fr).
