Our touring motor glider SF-25C Falke is the most widely operated aircraft in the club. No matter if you are flying with guests or just a lazy round by yourself, the “Falke” is an inexpensive and cozy, double-seated opportunity to get up in the air. The aircraft is made of a mixed construction (timber support, steel tube) and is very easy to handle, which is why the motor glider is internally known as a “pensioner jet”. By the way, the support wheels are not on the plane, because a beginner turns his rounds. The main landing gear only consists of one wheel, which would eventually drop the wings on the ground when landing. This would not make the rolling on the ground very easy.
