GROB 103 Twin Astir

[Vacajun]

Ugo, another beauty!!

My eyes are a bit confused because the sun angle for the shadow under the wing doesn't appear to agree with the shadow under the tail (?)

[Ugo Crisponi]

Tail shadow is vertical but the tail horizontal wing's shape is angled toward the rear, a bit like an F-104

Thanks a lot!!! Do you work at GROB?!

Hallo Ugo,

no I do not work there, but I look for documents for approximately 40 years also to gliders

Ugo, sorry I confused you with my comment. The shadow cast by the wing on the lower fuselage indicates that the sun is perpendicular to the fuselage (9:00 position) and above the left wing (note the tapered shape of leading and trailing edge shadow lines); while the shadow cast by the horizontal tail on the vertical tail is at some weird angle I don't understand.

The wing-cast shadows are not similar to Supah's F-104s since he has the sun in a forward and high position.

Sorry for the nit-picking!!
