Mercury 'Galahad' Laser-cut Rib Set

These are for the original F/F Mercury Galahad by F Knowles for a 15 to 25.

Flying the Galahad is a rewarding affair, with realistic take-off and fuss-free flight. The dihedral makes it super stable and self-righting, and she is a delight to putter about with, low down and slow.
