Laser Laser

(made in 1979)

The Laser is designed for the intermediate to advanced pilot and is suitable for competition, cross country thermaling or just plain ridge soaring. The machine has taken over a year to develop and this extensive work has produced an intermediate glider with good sink rate and glide angle, so that when the winds freshen its excellent penetration will be appreciated. The Laser slices through turbulence with its cambered fully floating battened sail. Having no deflexers and a strong easy to rig airframe it allows the maximum time possible in the air.

Specification:

Laser 190. Leading edge 20 ft, keel 8 ft (effective), sail area 190 sq ft, nose angle 120 deg., aspect ratio 6.2, span 34

ft 6 in, billow 0 deg.
