Built in the Czech Republic by LET, the L23 Blanik is the sailplane of choice for many clubs because of its easy handling characteristics, its aerobatic ability and the durability of its all-metal construction. The forward sweep of the wings and the “T” tail, give it a unique appearance in the air. We are pleased to offer a scale model of this popular sailplane. With a span of 2.7 meters, it is large enough to aerotow, while remaining agile enough for use on the slope or winch. Currently one of the nicest after vintage glider that we carry, this model is a very accurate reproduction at 1:5 scale and comes in all white. It comes ready for radio gear installation. Ailerons, rudder, elevator and airbrake will control the plane.
