ASG 29 | Aerofly FS

Description

The Schleicher ASG 29 is a single-seated high performance sailplane designed for the FAI-18-m competition class. The wingspan can be easily reduced to 15 m, allowing the ASG 29 to also start in the popular 15 m racing class. Having a maximum glide ratio of 52, the ASG 29 is at the upper end of the performance scale. Numerous top rankings at international competitions prove this outstanding performance. Long ailerons, extending almost to the wing tip, give this orchid a high maneuverability.
