Another PP Stunter restored

A couple of years ago, following a few people giving me damaged Peter Powell Stunters, I established the Peter Powell Kite Adoption Agency. Following #3 almost exactly two years ago, the Agency took charge of a black Mk I Stunter last week. The kite needed some TLC (the nose had come apart, for instance), a bridle, and a tail. None of that was difficult to implement, so here is #4!

In this case, the kite had someone pretty much new to kite-flying waiting for it. Of course, before I could hand the kite over to its new owner, it needed some testing, just to make sure all was as it should be.


It flew absolutely fine!


As we had a black Mk I out, it was a perfect opportunity to give our own pair of black Mk I Stunters some air time.


While flying these, I could almost hear the restored kite whisper "Can I fly as well together with another kite?" Of course you can!


#4 definitely passed all flight tests!
