About the SF-25 Superschlepper
The Scheibe SF-25 Superschlepper is a German fixed-wing touring motor glider configured with a single engine and side-by-side seating for two occupants. It suits recreational pilots and glider enthusiasts seeking an enclosed cockpit layout.
Developed by Scheibe Flugzeugbau as an evolution of an earlier glider model, the prototype took to the air in May 1963. Following initial production runs, the wing position was lowered for subsequent iterations. The type has been manufactured under license across multiple countries and remains available with various engine options.
The SF-25 Superschlepper is a variant of the Scheibe Aircraft SF-25 Super Falke. Other variants: SF 25 E, SF-25 Rotax Falke, SF-25 Turbo Falke.
