The Scheibe SF 25 C "Falke"

 

VH-GLA 

        

The Falke is the most popular motorglider in the world. Over 1200 have been sold worldwide. In 1997, the type was upgraded with a reinforced fuselage and either a 80 HP or a 100 HP engine, and thus became certified as a glider tug. It will tow a fully loaded ASH 25 and clear a 50 ft. obstacle off a grass field 2000 feet long. Our SF 25 C has a 80 HP Limbach engine. It will cruise at over 70 knots using only 12 liters per hour, and has a range of almost 350 miles. With the engine shut down, it will soar and glide about like a Schweizer 1-26. As any L/D can be simulated  by using partial engine power, it is also an excellent trainer for any type sailplane. The side-by-side seating offers good visibility and with the low engine noise, conversation is easy.

The Concept
The recipe is straight forward. Take a very popular two-seater and fit a proven and powerful engine for conversion it into a self-launcher. What you get is a very interesting aircraft that opens the door for highly efficient training on one hand and allows independent operations without gliding infrastructure on the other.  

Self Launching, Training, Performance.
