The
DG-600 from DG
Flugzeugbau (formerly Glaser-Dirks) was designed in 1987 and made available in
three configurations: a 15 M class sailplane with winglets, a 17 M version with
detachable tips and a self-launching motorized version. To the end of
production they build the Evolution with a wingspan of 18m. The extended wing version is still competitive with the newer DG-800 in
the 18 M class. The
wing molds for the DG-600 were destroyed in a fire at the factory in 1992 so
only 112 units were built. The few lucky pilots who own the limited number of this
aircraft are blessed with a sailplane that is still competitive in both the
15-meter class and, with extended wing tips, the open class.
The model reflects the top performance the original had, very
wide speed range, great thermal capability, a great all glass slipper.
This glider comes completely built, and
ready for radio installation. All parts are of high gloss white finish
moulded parts. High strength wings with ailerons controls,
live hinged and gapless. Comes with a 14mm hardened steel joiner. Fuselage
reinforced with high strength carbon tows. Scale seat with instrument panels. 2K
polyurethane painted parts for UV stability, no yellowish gel coat over the
years. Top of fuselage repainted for seamless look. Available in full carbon
version if requested.
