Schweizer SGS 1-36 Sprite
The Schweizer SGS 1-36 Sprite is a United States Sport Class single-seat mid-wing glider built by Schweizer Aircraft of Elmira New York. The 1-36 was first flown in 1979 and a total of 43 were built by the time production was completed in 1982. The Sprite was reportedly still available to customers in 1987 but none were built after 1982. The 1-36 was conceived as a replacement for the One-design competition Schweizer SGS 1-26 when production of that model ended in 1979.
Der Schweizer SGS 1-36 Sprite war ein äusserst beliebtes und
erfolgreiches Segelflugzeug in den USA der 70er Jahren.1
