Lowly (and only) LS-10 has taken a 9th and a 7th flying amongst all the latest super new models.
Too bad DG doesn't bother to place some top world-class pilots in a few more LS-10's.


Rick Walter's (RIP) won the pre-worlds in a LS-10 when it was first on Market. I was always surprised that the LS-6 drivers did not buy the LS-10. At a fit 200 pounds I just could not close the canopy though, (Longer torso, broad shoulders). I too thought DG should put a few top pilots in their LS-10 years ago.


LS6 drivers in my airfield had LS10 options bought and were anticipating the new glider. Then nothing happened for 5 years, they grew tired of waiting and ordered ASG29's instead. Same thing happened everywhere. LS10 was killed because factory could not deliver it.
