JA2096 (cn 4208) Built in 1968, this retro beauty stopped flying in 2001 and slept in a hangar for 7 years. In May of 2008, the club members led by Saori Kawamata decided to restore this old plane. After over 6 months of their hard work, she is now back as the main racing glider of the team. Seen on shot final at 6th Kan-Kan-Do-Rits Gliding Competition. Huge thanks to the club members and Norio Aoki for collecting the information. [Nikon D70s, Nikkor 300mm F4]
