Default Houston JS1c crash ONLY (not in any way about a Puchaczs, oranything else!)

Kevin,
You are correct that the FES is not offered by Schleicher. The FES is currently offered on the following gliders:
- LAK-17b FES
- SH Ventus 2cxa
- SH Ventus 3
- SH Discus 2c
- HPH 304S
- Silent 2 Electro
- Albastar also has a 13.5m glider with FES, but I believe they are not in production.

Thx - Renny
(LAK-17b FES owner)

The FES option for Schleicher gliders is news!

There was no mention of it at Aero a few weeks ago
