Jantar VNE
Hi,
Does anyone know whats up with the Jantar Std 2 VNE? I fly one in the UK and VNE is 137Kts or 255kph (http://www.glidin g.co.uk/bgainfo/technical/datasheets/jantarstd2.pdf), but as mentioned below and on other international gliding club websites, many quote 154kts!? hmmmm.... Storey. I think VNE for this glider is actually much faster than that. 154 kts. Nick. 'Mark James Boyd' wrote in message news:3fd2360d$1@darkstar... In article , Janusz Kesik wrote: On the 1st December 2003, H. Miranda (Argentina) flying Jantar Standard 2 has set a new World Record over the 100km triangular course in Open and 15-metre classes. The speed was 249.09 kph.

Exactly :
According to the Manual of the Jantar Standard 2 (SZD-48-1) : VNE = 285Km/h (154Kt), same VNE with breaks extended. The highest VNE of any glider I've flown or seen. Looks like your club decided to put an extra safety factor for some reason. AP "Nils Høimyr" wrote in message ... Jantar Std. 2 and 3: 285 kph.
