What a great glider!
Nice handling, great visibility, side by side so cockpit communication is great. It even has a dummy landing gear handle which will sound an alarm if you try to pull airbrakes with the fixed gear "up".
There should be more than the one...

I enjoyed flying it as well. It wasn't built quite
straight and has a firm tendency to turn at speed...
There was lots of intrigue and multiple attempts
to get it into production, but that was all
decades ago.
