Glider Aircraft
A glider is a fixed-wing aircraft that is supported in flight by the dynamic reaction of the air against its lifting surfaces, and whose free flight does not depend on an engine. Most gliders do not have an engine, although motor-gliders have small engines for extending their flight when necessary by sustaining the altitude (normally a sailplane relies on rising air to maintain altitude) with some being powerful enough to take off by self-launch. There are a wide variety of types differing in the construction of their wings, aerodynamic efficiency, location of the pilot, controls and intended purpose. Most exploit meteorological phenomena to maintain or gain height. Gliders are principally used for the air sports of gliding, hang gliding and paragliding. However some spacecraft have been designed to descend as gliders and in the past military gliders have been used in warfare. Some simple and familiar types of glider are toys such as paper planes and balsa wood gliders. Etym ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Działowski Bydgoszczanka
The Działowski Bydgoszczanka, named after Bydgoszcz, the city where it was built in 1925, was a Polish glider designed to compete in the Second National Gliding Contest. Design and development Czarna Góra did not provide the wind speeds needed for the First Polish Glider Contest, held in 1923. The organizers of the Second Contest, held in 1925, chose Oksywie near Gdynia in the search for better winds but their hopes were not rewarded and the best flights of 1923 were not approached, though more flights were made and with fewer crashes. The Second Contest began on 17 May and ended on 14 June, though only fifteen of the twenty-seven contestants were flown. The Bydgoszczanka, designed by the Działowski brothers Stanisław and Mieczyła, won no prizes. The brothers built the Bydgoszczanka in the workshops of the Pilot's Lower School in Bydgoszcz. It was not the only open frame glider in the contest but its frame and wing position were unusual. The frame was made by gluing toget ...

Diana-2
The SZD-56 Diana is a 15 metre Class glider originally designed by Bogumił Bereś at PZL-Bielsko. However, PZL Bielsko went bankrupt before it could be put into serial production. The rights to the design were taken over by a new entity, Diana Sailplanes, which developed the design further into the Diana 2. The Diana 2 first flew on 12 January 2005. Bayerl, Robby; Martin Berkemeier; et al: ''World Directory of Leisure Aviation 2011–12'', page 141. WDLA UK, Lancaster UK, 2011. ISSN 1368-485X After two years of development, in 2018 a new design using a fuselage from Czech manufacturer KKB and a wing from Diana Sailplanes was introduced for the 18 metre Class called the Diana 3. Design and development The Diana is a single-seat 15-metre class sailplane. It uses a mid-wing cantilever monoplane with a T-tail unit. It has an all composite carbon-aramid-epoxy structure. The spar-less wing has plate airbrakes protruding from the upper surface only with full-span flaperons. T ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Cywiński Lublin
The Cywiński Lublin I and II were very similar Polish gliders, designed and built for the 1923 First Polish Glider Contest. Design and development Reports of the first German glider contest, held at the Wasserkuppe in the late summer of 1920, generated considerable interest in Poland, leading to the First Polish Glider Contest at Czarna Góra between 30 August and 13 September 1923. The contest was not a great success, limited by novice designers and pilots and a poor site, but the Karpiński SL.1 Akar was by far the most successful entrant. The Lublin was designed by Stanisław Cywiński and two examples, designated Lublin I and Lublin II, were built in the Lublin works of Plage i Laśkiewicz. The only differences between the two were in their ailerons. The Lublin was an aerodynamically clean, wooden, high-wing monoplane. Its one-piece wing had two spars, a trapezoidal plan, and a fabric covering. The fuselage had a rectangular section and in profile resembled a thi ...
