Comment:
Th LAK-12 is a single-seat FAI Open-class mid- wing sailplane with a one-piece forward-hinged canopy. The retractable main wheel rides on an oil/nitrogen shock absorber and uses a mechanical brake. A skid is used at the tail. The wings are glass-foam-glass construction and taper from a Wortmann FX67-K-170 airfoil inboard to an FX67- K-150 at the tips. Glidepath control is provided by double-panel upper surface airbrakes and by the flaps (-7, -4, 0, +5, +11, +15 deg). The wings are capable of holding a total of 190 liters of water in their leading edges and are filled and emptied through a hole in bottom of the fuselage.
