Default What gliders do you hate?


SGS-1-34???

Don't pick on the 1-34! Our club has had two, just about forever...

Great club gliders! Cheap to buy...nice to fly...leave 'em outside ready to go at any time...

You can run the ridge comfortably at 100 MPH...

Those airbrakes are fantastic!

The "R" version is real quiet..

The OLC handicap makes it a real contender...With a good pilot, it can win at sports class contests too..

Did my Gold Badge (14,000' wave in NJ!!)and two Diamonds all in 1-34...

In the spirit of fun, what gliders (makes or specific ones) do you hate, distrust, or are just plain tired of. Have you given so many rides in one model that you never want to see it again? Is there a plane that, despite treating it right, just seemed to want to hurt you? Or is there one out there that is just so ugly that you can't stand it?

My pleas won't work, but let's keep it fun. .... I'll save my example for later in the discussion but I'll give you a hint; it's Polish made.
