Description
Group Purpose: To discus and share information on the Monerai Sailplane.
Both the powered (Monerai P) and unpowered (Monerai S) versions are identical structurally.
We are interested in its flying characteristics, building or modification tips, events featuring the Monerai and the general
accumulation of information as a resource for builders and flyers of this sailplane.
The Monerai is a 80's era kit built aircraft of Aluminum Fiberglass that assembles in ~600hrs.
There are many fine examples flying, and more being built from kits.
