| Well, for starters (and the only one I know), how about the default sail plane? |

The best jokes of them all are the accidental.
Jrtec13,
Maybe you can try with paragliding....that needs hardly any thaining, and it doesn't cost as much as a glider session.....so....until you're a little older, play with a kite :P
No offence....

Good choices for a beginner's sailplane have always been planes that have around 2 meter (about 78 inches) or shorter wing spans and use only rudder and elevator for controls (2 channels).
Aparently the TG-3 and S1-26 are very good and reasonably well prcied but I wouldn't have a clue to be honest. Use our good friend Google. |
