Exactly :
According to the Manual of the Jantar Standard 2 (SZD-48-1) :
VNE = 285Km/h (154Kt), same VNE with breaks extended.
The highest VNE of any glider I've flown or seen.

Looks like your club decided to put an extra safety factor for some reason.

Hi,

Does anyone know whats up with the Jantar Std 2 VNE?
I fly one in the UK and VNE is 137Kts or 255kph (http://www.glidin
g.co.uk/bgainfo/technical/datasheets/jantarstd2.pdf),
but as mentioned below and on other international
gliding club websites, many quote 154kts!? hmmmm....


Storey.


I think VNE for this glider is actually much faster
than that. 154 kts.
