Comment:
A development of the 10m. straight wing LO-100
aerobatic glider, the LO-150 features a two-
piece, plywood covered, single spar wing and
uses flaps for glidepath control. The fuselage
is a wooden monocoque with a cantilever tail.
Early models had a skid and jettisonable dolly
instead of a fixed main wheel. A.J. Smith won
the 1961 Nationals in a LO-150 and Harold Jensen
flew another 700 km/ 435 miles. To win the 1962
Barringer Trophy. |
