What do you seriously thinking its aimed for?? -winning the Open Class
World Championships?

I'm not sure how much it costs new. But I'm sure that for the same money you can get an older and much better performing glider that you could grow into that you COULD eventually race in, if you wanted to, or work on records, or some other performance related soaring activity.


On a good flying day with no towplane or towpilot in sight, this thing
would fly circles around a JS-3 sitting on the ground.

LOL!
