AERO 2019 – Postscript
Much News and a big Surprise
The 2019 Aero in Friedrichshafen was marked by innovation, much of which could be seen at the Schleicher stand. Modifications to the ASG 32 Mi, detailed information about the new AS 33 18m glider, the new ASK 21 B and, of course, the announcement of our latest project, the 15/18m AS 34 Me electric self-launcher.
Our trade fair team, composed of our sales and production divisions, was pleased to answer the many questions from the large number of visitors and continually encouraged large and small pilots to sit in the cockpits of the gliders we had brought to the fair.
There was also an enthusiastic response to our raffle, in which clubs could win the use of our works ASK 21 B for a two-week gliding encampment.
