  • The author was also invited to visit Jugoslavia and to give two lectures at the universities at Ljubljano and Beograd. However, after receiving the required visa the author found it impossible to go there. The organization of the Jugoslavian soaring movement is very interesting. There is a plant with 45 people mak. ing sailplanes for the movement. They have several talented engineers who devote their spare time to designing sailplanes. One of these is Boris Cijan, de· signer of the Orao II and the other is a young student of Ljubljano Technische. Hochschule, Jaroslav Koser, who designed the Triglav and the Jadran amphibian

sailplane.
