Single seat, 15m standard class glider
The LS-7 offers a level of performance close to that of the latest gliders. Even with this performance, it is pleasant to fly, with a very good roll rate.
VH-XJB is fitted with a Borgelt B-100 flight computer with GPS, which gives the pilot constant updates on final glide and average speed, as well as navigational assistance. The LS-7 has a tail ballast tank, which allows a desired C of G position to be set. Yes Sarah, it has winglets.
