Hesham - you keep on digging up these interesting bit an pieces - don't stop doing that!.
The article you referred to is extremely complete and I doubt there will be more information around - but of course it s worthwhile trying.
Alas, the article is in Dutch and, I presume, that poses a problem for you.
I will save the article and, if you want me to, I can translate it for you, but will not be able to do so until later this year.
Thank you my dear Jos,
I translated some of it,and that very nice of we can know more about
that designer and his aircraft and projects.
Thank you Eric for V20/PH-90.
Mooi project, PH-90!
Hij doet me wel erg denken aan de DFS Olympia PH 170 en nog wat, waar ik op vloog, maar dan met vleugelstijlen...
Related to this (well, sort of....) is the Vliegtuigbouw Teuge's Sagitta glider of the 1960s. I have enclosed a pdf version of an article that I 'pirated' from somewhere a long time ago from an unknown source (apologies to the original writer).
Excellent work my dear Jos.
