The Minimoa, with it's amazing silhouette,
is probably one of the most reproduced vintage glider these days, but
still remains a curiosity. It symbolizes the year thirties of the German
soaring. It was under many else, a technological adventure who helped many
pilots to quit the slope soaring and explore the thermal soaring under
clouds and even to wave soaring. It was a breakthrough from experimental
soaring to pure sport flying.
The Minimoa was
one of the first realization of the young company Göppingen
Segelflugzeugbau born in 1935 when Wolf Hirth and Martin Schempp teamed
up. Renamed Schempp-Hirth Segelflugzeugbau after the war, they are today
one of the most famous and largest glider manufacturer.
Vintage glider are known for their great
look and gentle flying behaviour. They are some of the greatest thermal
ships you can fly and are a real joy. They will give you many hours of
flight and are so graceful to see. This semi scale ship will be in its
element behind a tug, but will let you winch it and will be a joy on the
slope.
