Description

Norrlands Modellflygindutri released a kit of Ragnar Odenman's design which placed 2:nd at the 1950 world champs. They named it Viking, but it was also released as the Kondor! This is a fairly typical Swedish glider from this period with tip dihedral and cabin, easy to tow and a good flier. The Viking is still very popular at oldtimer competitions, and a modern CNC-cut kit has been released by Lasse Larsson in collaboration with Hobbyträ (http://byggmo.se/modell_index.html).

Note that there are several plans for this design with different names; "Viking", "Kondor", "VM-2:an" and "Odenman Nordic A2".
