Sisu--
The glider designed and built by Leonard Niemi in the early sixties, which went on to win no less then three National Soaring Championships, and Three world records,one of those the world distance record. That Sisu now is in the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum.
You are probably asking yourself , What does this have to do with Lindenwood Aviation?
I will not bother with all the small details at this time ( call me if you really want to know) .
I have here all the original blueprints, jigs, molds used to build the Sisu, including the notes written by Leonard Niemi when he was building them.
At this time all this is being stored for the owner, but I have been given authority to build at least one ,possibly two.
The first new built Sisu in 40 years!
We do have a large amount of parts that were built by Leonard back in the 60's and when we see what all is here we will start to assemble it.
Please feel free to call if you have any questions, we will try to keep this section updated with pictures of the progress.
