Schempp-Hirth's Mini-Nimbus is a single-pilot 15-metre-class sailplane first flown in 1976. Measuring 6.4 meters long with a 15-meter wingspan, this aircraft combines competitive performance with manageable proportions for individual pilots. The 15-metre class designation reflects strict aerodynamic and structural regulations designed to promote fair competition. The Mini-Nimbus became a popular choice for championship-level soaring at the national level throughout Europe.
