Beautiful sailplane. Does anyone else think the forward fuselage, looks like it barrowed lines from the Schleicher series, ASW-24,27,28, ASG-29? The tapper looks different.

The JS1 fuselage is a near exact copy of the ASH26E. Close enough that I suspect they simply took a mold off of one. Imitation is flattery I guess.
