The Schempp-Hirth Quintus, first flown in 2011, represents modern open-class sailplane design with a 23-meter wingspan and single engine integration. At 7.8 meters long, this German aircraft pushes the boundaries of performance gliding with motorized assist capability. Its extended wingspan provides exceptional glide ratio and lift-generating efficiency for high-altitude thermaling. The Quintus incorporates contemporary materials and construction techniques while maintaining pilot accessibility and handling simplicity.
