Five Arcus were the last to find their place in the containers. The total of seven containers, some with up to six gliders, are now being shipped to Walvis Bay by truck. The freighter Green Mountain will take them to Rotterdam. They are expected there in early March. The gliders should then be ready to fly again in Europe in mid-March, just in time for the new cross-country flight season.
The latest flagship from Jonker Sailplanes, the JS5 Rey, has successfully completed its first flight in Namibia - in the world-famous thermal oasis of Bitterwasser. Thanks to excellent weather conditions, several 1000-kilometer flights have already been achieved.
One of our Arcus M 2.0 gliders has just become available and can be chartered here in Bitterwasser.
Timeframe: December 21, 2024, to January 6, 2025.
