Default LS3a or Mini Nimbus

The LS-3a is an absolute joy to fly. I owned one for 17 years.

I believe that each LS3-a wing is 24 lbs lighter than the LS3 wing (48
lbs total).

LS3 wings are considerably heavier than LS3A wings, due to lead mass
balance weights in the flaperons which were eliminated in the A and 17
models...
