About the Asw 15

The Alexander Schleicher & ASW 15 is a German single-seat glider designed for soaring enthusiasts. It features a shoulder-mounted wing configuration and an all-flying tailplane, offering a streamlined layout tailored for cross-country performance and competition flying.

Created by Gerhard Waibel, the sailplane underwent several refinements in its later production iteration, including a taller rudder and the integration of a water ballast system. It achieved international recognition when an American pilot utilized the type to repeatedly set world distance soaring records during the early nineteen-seventies.
