Default Graupner Cirrus

Charlie:
I believe I had a Graupner Cirrus in the 70's. There were two similar airplanes, the Cirrus and the Cumulus. Both were 3M (2800MM) or 120" wingspan. The difference between them was the Cirrus was a three channel with ailerons, the Cumulus a two channel. Both had the fiberglass fuselage. I flew both using a .09 glo pod. Great aircraft, very light wingloading, and great in finding thermals. I still have a fuselage, and would like to trade some information if we are talking about the same aircraft.
