Our Fleet

The aircraft we fly

We currently have 2 primary two-place trainers (2 SGS 2-33), one advanced two-place  trainer (ASK-21), one single seat glider (SGS 1-26D), and one Piper Pawnee towplane. Below are pictures and information on the planes.

Schweizer SGS 2-33

SVS owns two SGS 2-33 gliders: 3619T and "Yellow Bird". These gliders are used for "Classic" Sightseeing Rides and training students.

Schleicher ASK 21

New from the factory in November, 2010, ASK-21 Tail Number 747SV...What a beauty!  We do "Cloud-9" Sightseeing Rides with this plane.  Its superior glide ratio and all fiberglass construction make it a popular choice.

Piper Pawnee 235

This is our "tug" (our Tow Plane).  In a former life it was a crop duster.  Notice the long nose?  Most of that is not engine but empty hopper where spay mixtures were carried.
Picture

Schweizer SGS 1-26

This is our single seat glider used by club members to polish their soaring skills.  Sleek as it looks it is still classified as a primary trainer so students are able to "graduate" to it relatively quickly after their solo flight.
