Who's building what for 2023

Post by Cliff Evans »

New model in the pipeline from Jilles for next year. Can anyone other than Vince and Jilles name this glider?

Good quiz . . . my first thought Racik 3 but wrong tail.
King Kite without struts, nah, no pylon and wrong elevator shape.

So my guess is a Minimoa fuse with King Kite wings. :? :? :?

Is that spelling right? Auntie google doesn't reckognise it. I did consider the Goppingen Gö4 but the width of the canopy didn't look wide enough for a 'side by side' two seater.

So, spelling is everything it seems to Google.
Never heard of this glider so more info please.
