TUFF TIN Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Mike, Cool glider ! Tim When I first built the glider, many modelers had no idea what it was. I came from the Northwest and logging is my roots and we built up several gliders. Even Gordon Fast Frieght built a couple of walk-in KW sleepers in 1976.
