Default RE: what is this thing?

Carl,

I have some interesting historical facts about the Mäxi and 1969 World F3A Championship. I have the orginal official program brochure from that event.
For example:
- Front cover of the program below.
- On one of the pages Robbe had an ad and guess what plane they had choosen to show - yes a Mäxi.
- The event was held in Germany, Lemwerder Bremen, July 23-27 1969 with competition days July 25-27. See the schedule below from the brochure.
- Start order was as below (yellow pictures), Elsässer had start nr 14 (the poor guy from Sweden, Jesper von Segebaden had the not so nice start nr 1, must be the worst start number to have in a WC).
- The manuvers they flew was as pictures below. When you can fly those manuvers with your Mäxi then you should be happy and remember that exactly this flying schedule was Mäxi designed for.
