Thanks Lou,
I was of the same thinking as you about how this variation of G-Line worked. I thought I was fairly up-to-date on most of the Stanzel systems but this one had me stumped. Your suggestion about contacting the museum is a good idea. I will report back if I learn anything.
I'm fascinated by the history of model aviation technology and I plan on actually building some of their models and using all of the Stanzel methods just to satisfy a burning curiosity.
I Just checked and Google Maps shows the museum here:
Stanzel Model Aircraft Museum
311 Baumgarten St
Schulenburg, TX 78956
United States
Their website is:
http://www.stanzelmuseum.org/index.html
It looks like they can be contacted and I will do that.
The good thing is that they seem to have a very good museum that is still open... the bad thing is that we did a road trip to San Antonio 5 years ago (from Canada) and Schulenberg is only about 100 miles away, but I was not thinking about my Stanzel project at the time.
