Good luck finding one as I think there is only two in the whole
country.
If you want a LS 4 the best you can do is a 4a and if that rings your
bell
let me know as I have a nice one for sale right now.

We had 2 privately owned 4b's at GBSC. One was destroyed in an
unfortunate accident (pilot recovered fully) about a year and a half
ago. The owner of the remaining 4b says that he's been offered more
money for his used ship than what he paid for it (new) - presumably due
to the weak US dollar. A sweet glider.

Thanx Tony.. most interesting.. in production since 1981 and the 1997
Soaring Directory (SSA) makes no mention of it. Maybe because as another
poster said? there are only one or two in the US? Looks like they
"modernized" the 4 or 4a with autoconnect controls, instrument panel tilts
with the canopy etc... and a couple of other safety features.

I know I like our LS4

My club has three of them. If I'm not mistaken, the main difference to
the "a" model are the authomatic aileron hookups. Very easy and fast to
rig, besides the safety factor. Another difference may be the instrument
panel which lifts with the canopy. I think to remember this wasn't so
with the "a" model, either.

Of the 1000 or so built LS4s, the last 200 or so were built as "b".

Hi guys,

I'm steven huiskes. our glidingclub owns an ls4b. the ls4b provides
more space for the pilot. I think it is a great plane. it fly's very
simple.

Kind regards, Steven Huiskes
