Slingsby Vega

The Vickers-Slingsby T-65 Vega is a 15-metre class class glider which first flew on 3 June 1977.

Of fibreglass construction, it features linked camber-changing flaps and airbrakes, and a retractable main and tailwheel.

[1] A simplified version called the T-65C Sport Vega has a non-retractable mainwheel and hinged trailing edge airbrakes instead of flaps.

This version of the Vega first flew on 18 December 1979 and has no provision for water ballast.
