  1. @MacSnider ich hab 2 #siku Modelle entdeckt 😇
    Den Polizei Porsche und den blauen F1 Rennwagen.
    Hab da in den letzten 25-30 Jahren ein Adlerauge für entwickelt, weil es bei mir absolut ähnlich war:
    „Started“ mit wenigen Siku Autos als Kleinkind, jetzt füllen Unmengen davon Schränke, Regale und Vitrinen.
    Hotwheels hab ich allerdings im leben nur max. 5 besessen, weil jemand mit aus Versehen da mal ein Set geschenkt hat, statt der geliebten Sikus 😅

    Oh Korrektur: A5 und Senna übersehen 😇

  2. Zwei Mal Siku, einmal Hot Wheels. Aber welcher ist der von Hot Wheels? #DieCast #HotWheels #Siku

  3. From the collection: two #Siku #MercedesBenz mid-range saloons, a Stroke 8 250 Polizei and a W213 E350d.

  4. Reserve throw practice at SIV. Pilot intentionally induces collapse and uncontrolled spiral descend and then throws the reserve when low enough. Resulting in a view on a cocoon of harness being suspended under the reserve and pilot descending to the water which ends with a spectacular splooch. In the end we can see the pilot safely floating in the water, but slowly getting tangled into the lines of the paraglider.

    EDIT: die Räder verraten es - ein Modell von #Siku

  6. #Ad: #Selling my school glider #Ozone Jomo (1st generation). It has 158 flights out of which 86 flights were in school (mostly top-to-bottom). Clocked 25h of "air time", including one session of 3h 30min of ground handling.

    Always dried properly, folded properly and stored in a bag. No #SAV (#SIKU), no tree landing, no landing into water, no holes on the canopy.

    Had to replace the clip for holding the brake in position when parked on the right side (typical issue with this system). The glider has an ad sticker for "Augencentrum Interlaken" over it, so selling it for a nicer price.

    - Type: Jomo I
    - Size: M
    - Flying weight: 80-100 kg
    - Flat area: 26.0 m²
    - Projected area: 22.1 m²
    - Glider weight: 3.8 kg
    - Classification: A
    - Colours: White, green, purple

    Did #trimming & check on 06.04.2024, passed with all pieces "i.O" (perfect marks), I can provide the test results protocol. Did not fly it since the test.

    Overall it's a very stable, very safe wing and easy to handle. Liked it to pass the test at school, but now I have more agile toy to use. It has still tons of life in it, so I would like if someone could take it for more flights.

  7. @slirt: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siku_Toy says the company was founded in 1921, i.e. over 100 years ago, and that the "#Siku" brand was established in 1950. Funnily the "Ku" comes from "Kunststoff", the German word for "plastic" despite they are mostly known for their die-cast models—at least in my generation. Their "Super series" was a part of my childhood.
