Slingsby T-53B 111" GliderWhen the Slingsby factory in Great Britain decided to move away from wooden construction, the aluminium T 53 was developed. It features two fixed tandem wheels and a very obvious swept forward wing. The Slingsby T 53B was a minor modification of the Slingsby T 53 two seat tandem trainer, and was used by the RAF for Air Cadet training. Our Laser Cut Kit is based on the 1970 design by Bob Andris. The kit includes a clear vacuum formed canopy. UK

Short Kit Or Complete Airframe Kit?

A Short Kit includes a full size printed plan and all of the laser cut parts that are required as part of the complete airframe build.

Items such as wing ribs, dihedral joiners, fuselage formers & fuselage parts, doublers, bulkheads and so on.

I love this set.
The cream smells warm and comforting. I’ve received compliments on how I smell while wearing it. I apply it all over after showering and my skin stays smooth and hydrated all day. The oil is great as well. I apply it on top of the cream before dressing. Unlike other oils, this actually absorbs into my skin and leaves me looking beautiful with a sheen. It’s more like a serum than an oil. Most oils sit on top of the skin and look oily and feel greasy. I would highly recommend both of these for hydrated, healthy looking skin.

This is a great duo
This set is amazing!... It smells amazing, it is so moisturizing and smooth on the skin. I love the subtle shimmer it leaves on the skin. I will say that, based on the climate or weather differences, you can feel the difference. For example, in Las Vegas, this sinks right into the dry skin and leaves you feeling well hydrated on your skin. When I'm in places like FL, the high humidity can leave this product feeling a little over-hydrating and the skin a little "tacky," but this is truly a person by person try it and find out for yourself. Either way, I love it and highly would suggest this for anyone that loves a good shimmer (light but hits great in the sun) and high moisturizing properties

Will buy again!
This smells AMAZING. Immediately after I opened up the whipped lotion, I was hit with an intense coco butter smell. The oil has the same affect, only with a gorgeous shiny finish. Both the oil and the butters consistency is perfect, the lotion doesnt feel too thick and the oil doesnt leave me slipping and sliding lol. There is shimmer in it but it doesnt look like Ive covered myself in glitter so i love that. The moisture lasts for such a long time especially when applied right after a shower. My skin absorbed it very nicely without feeling sticky or like there is any left over residue. The price for two was absolutely worth it10/10 will reorder after I run out.
