Comment:
The LS-3 was a 15 meter racing class sailplane
with full-span flaperons instead of the more
usual flap/aileron combination. The flaperons
are coupled with dive brakes to reduce approach
and landing speeds. The LS-3a version has
separate flaps and ailerons. All οΎ–3 series use a
fuselage similar to that developed for the
Standard Class LS-1f, which features a front-
hinged canopy and a fixed stabilizer on a T-
tail. The LS-3-17 version was offered with a 17
m. wing with no change in gross weight. ATC |
