The aircraft we fly

We currently have 2 single seat gliders (An SGS 1-26 and an SGS 1-23), two advanced two-place  trainer (ASK-21 and IS-28B2), and one Piper Pawnee towplane. Below are pictures and information on the planes.

Schweizer SGS 1-23

SVS owns a classic SGS 1-23 glider - this one was actually flown by soaring icon Paul Schweizer in the 1956 Nationals in which he finished in 4th place!

Schleicher ASK 21

Our 2010 ASK-21 Tail Number 747SV...What a beauty!    Its superior glide ratio and all fiberglass construction make it a popular choice. ​

Schweizer SGS 1-26

Sleek as it looks, our venerable SGS 1-26 is still classified as a primary trainer so students are able to "graduate" to it relatively quickly after their solo flight.

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.
