Yes, Genesis is a flying wing, but I had a vague idea they might have been available as kits (as well as factory produced). But I didn't think any came into Australia.
At least a couple of the American Spirit/Falcons (not sure which) were impported into Australia. None of them finished as far as I know. One here in SA progresses slowly, so will probably fly one day. One uncompleted project was for sale in Qld (I think) a couple of years ago. The original US company folded, which makes assistance somewhat moot. A few flew in the US. Like many glider ideas from the US (as distinct from their power planes), I think both the Genesis and the American Spirit/Falcons didn't quite live up to expectations. Regards SWK -----Original Message----- From: Tom Gilbert Think it was an American Spirit or American Falcon. Genesis ws a flying wing design and not kitbuilt.
