(STOL)
performance on almost any type of terrain. (click on the link for more
details).
This airframe is perfect as a tug, but also a joy
to fly and see!
Accurately reproduced with its typical shape, and has great handling.
The strong flaps will allow steep dive back, without acceleration, and
land at your feet to get an other glider to tow in the air quickly.
A pure pleasure to fly!
