The original:


The Schleicher ASH 26 is a single-seat FRP glider with a wingspan of 18 metres. It has flaps and retractable landing gear and is designed for fast performance soaring. Almost all of the Schleicher ASH 26 delivered since the first flight in 1993 have a retractable engine. The gliding index was 120 and was lowered to 117 in 2012.


With the BL and CL versions of the Schleicher ASW 20 in the 1980s, the aircraft manufacturer Alexander Schleicher had shown that there was a great demand for aircraft with a wingspan of approx. 18 meters, as a compromise between only 15 meters in the 15- m class and wingspans of over 20 meters in the open class, which make handling on the ground difficult. That is why the ASH 26 was developed by the designers Martin Heide and Gerhard Waibel. Also, since there was (and still is) a great demand for gliders with retractable engines, a Mid-West AE-50R rotary engine was incorporated directly into the design. The trend towards 18 meter aircraft was so strong that in 1997 the FAI introduced the 18 meter class as a new competition class, for which the Schleicher ASH 26 has been built ever since.


The model:


The ASH-26 has a beautiful surface geometry and with a span of just 3 meters it is also a very nice size for the slope. The construction is very stable, which also proves to be an advantage for somewhat harder landings on slopes. Despite the very filigree surfaces, the ASH-26 can be flown and landed very slowly for the landing approach with the help of the flaps and spoilers.


A model that fits in every trunk.


The pack size is only 1.45 m.
