Default Bushmans 6 meter ASH 26 SLS

I have been flying sailplanes for a long time and thought I would treat myself to this baby
It is a LET models 6 meter ASH with Self Launch System

Some pictures for now and a full build tread later on.
My friend Itsic is holding the plane for size

Very cool, I love the big sailplanes (not gliders) there is a differnce you know. I had a 4m ASW 28 that I did with scale cockpit, and such. Show these guys that these arent your old gentle lady, and that they are truly high performance.
