About the Szd-59 "Acro"
The Allstar PZL Glider SZD-59 "Acro" is a single-seat glider built in Poland. Designed as a versatile sailplane for aero clubs and flight schools, it accommodates a single pilot and features interchangeable wingtips to transition between aerobatic and cross-country configurations. It suits pilots seeking a multi-role aircraft capable of performing competitive routines as well as extended thermal flights.
Background information highlights that this model evolved to provide three distinct wingspans, allowing it to adapt from a rigid airframe suited for intense aerobatics into a standard-class cruiser equipped with water ballast tanks and top-surface airbrakes. The airframe utilizes durable construction and is engineered to handle significant positive and negative loads. Aside from full-scale production, popular radio-controlled scale variants have also been successfully campaigned in European aerobatic contests.
