What model glider will they fly ?


What....13.5/15? Must be stealthy, but why keep that under wraps

when most
start leaking new models to get some to hold off on a competitor

purchase.
Do tell more?


In 7th FAI SGP World Final - Race 4 video on YouTube 1:52:15 onwards
listen to Uys Jonker reveal some information...first public mention of
the JS3.

And in 7th FAI SGP World Final – Race 6 video on YouTube at 1:16:00
the commentators Shaun Lapworth and Brian Spreckley mention a
Jonker Sailplanes factory tour looking at the new JS3, a 15/18m
glider….and that the 18m version will be better than today’s JS1-18m.
