Matthias Strieker was an F3A B squad pilot in Germany at the end of the eighties. Inspired by Wolfgang Matt’s Granat, he developed his own design.
The ‘Staccato’
The ‘Staccato’ was rather larger than the ‘Granat’.
Wingspan 1.85 metres
Length 1.74 metres
It was fitted with an OS Hanno 61 and a Hatori tube. Naturally, Giezendanner retracts was integrated and an Asano 12.5 x 11.75″ propeller was used.
In the early nineties, Matthias focussed primarily on F3AX, shortly after which he developed his man-carrying aerobatic aircraft, the Silence Twister.
