There is one in the Portland Oregon area. It's owned by two members
of the Willamette Valley Soaring Club, Jim Little and Bob MacIlveen.

Gee, I wonder what Sam's up to now...

Rolladen-Schneider LS-1F S 15 1.019

F = fixed gear S = standard class

Not to mention far better performance above 70kts on the 101 vs. the
LS1. We might have more trouble "swatting him" off next year. Now if
he was really smart, the Club Libelle at 1.141 would be a far better
choice. Then again, I may already have made that choice.....

There is also a factory wing tip mod kit for the DG-100 that improves
highspeed performance.

I was told the LS1f will be getting a new handicap this year. I
believe I heard .990 or in that neighborhood. The "f" has been
handicapped the same as the other LS1 models until now.
