Mitlerweile gibt es aber mehr oder? Ach das ist ja eins wo man unten die Füße draußen hat. Die gibt es heute schon in Kunststoffbauweise. Die sehen auch total geil aus.
If you have experience with this type of lightweight construction, you recognize it is a strength. The concern you have is misplaced. The construction is much stronger than you would think and the airframe is so light that high speeds necessary for high g is quite limited. Of course, this airframe is not designed for the stresses of full aerobatics, but it is an incredibly strong design for simple and safe flight.
Wonderful glider - thats exactly what I was banging on about when I flew sailplanes in the 1990s; there was no kind of entry class for modest income folks. That glider is it. Classic looks and simplicity, from an earlier, simpler time.
That's amazing! I don't speak German could someone translate as to what the unladen weight was? Was it 50Kilo's? Also what was the construction material?
German :D

G loading well what do you mean g-loading, the plane and pilot don't weight
but 350 pounds total, so at 4 g's thats
1400 700 per wing probably stand up to twice that for 8 g's try that in your cessna

Think about the g loading on that thing. What would happen in a spin or a spiral dive? I would never fly that.
