Turbine powered models
| A U2 built by club member Pete Smith from a G Bertella plan and intended to be powered by a ducted fan unit. Balsa, ply and foam construction. | 2.615m span, this model has made about 35 successful flights, including several shows. It appeared for 4 flights at the our last jet meeting. |
| Pete converted his model to turbine power using a mw 44. The fuel tank had to be specially made as well as the jet tube. | Balsa Craft pusher plan built up and converted by Dennis Belleini and John Kirkland for John. The model is now powered by a Wren turbine. |
