Default Any information on the TST-10M?

Hi,

A friend of mine bought a TST-10 Atlas a few years ago. It was one of
the early ones.
He seemed to enjoy it, the winglets were tall and fixed to the wings,
so the trailer was a bit of a challenge. The interior was pretty
descent, some of the fittings were somewhat crude, but semed to work.

I got to fly it once as an aerotow and enjoyed the way it handled and
flew, there was a lot of cockpit interior tweaking necessary for pilot
comfort.

There were some minor fit and finish issues, in my opinion. But, I
would have to say overall it was a nice machine.

I do not know the cost of the Atlas, nor the current cost of an Apis
motorglider, but my money would go towards the Apis hands down.

Cheers,
Brad
