Intro

JS1b 18m for sale. Ready for top level competition. No accidents.

Description

JS1b 18m – high-performance 18 m class sailplane with outstanding speed, glide and handling, ideal for ambitious cross-country and competition pilots.

The JS1 is a modern flapped carbon/Kevlar sailplane that combines excellent high-speed cruise with a very competitive glide ratio of around 1:53. Designed with aerodynamics, structures and pilot comfort in mind, it offers crisp, predictable handling and a very “connected” feel in thermals and on glide, making it easy to fly fast and far while still being relaxing to sit in for long tasks.
