Hi everybody,

I wonder I can get the polar data of my LS8-18 in the 18 meter
configuration - no problem with the 15 meter version so far - to put it in
the Winpilot polar file.

I guess there is a possibility to figure that out for oneself, but I hope
there is someone out there who already has done it.

Thanks in advance.

Jürgen

Hi,

There is polar data for that glider on my new Polars web page.

Good Soaring,

Hi

18m seems to be wrong.
Have a look at

http://www.sg-solothurn.ch/FlugzeugeLS8.htm

Ther is also a jpg of the original polars.

Cheers

Hi,

I appreciate the link to the polar, but it would be much easier if everyone
would send me the data rather than pointing me to the data. Can you please
send me the data you derived from the polar?

Is the polar on that web site a theoretically one from the factory, or one
measured in flight tests?

Thanks,

Paul Remde
