Duo Discuss
When the sun is only an hour above Job's Peak and you're still 30 miles from Minden at 12,000' MSL, you'll appreciate the high performance and sleek finish of our Duo Discus as you settle into final glide for home. Or when you're towing out to the Pine Nut Range in the middle of the morning, sniffing for those first hints of lift at the foot of Mt. Siegel, those long wings will get you away from the Carson Valley and on course for a Diamond distance flight while the others are still struggling over the alfalfa fields.
Yet for all its high performance the Duo Discus is not a difficult glider to fly. You'll appreciate that fact as the kilometers pass quietly under your wings and the hours stretch out. SoaringNV chose the Duo Discus as a two-place cross country trainer because it gives you performance with safety and good handling. Our Duo comes with state-of-the-art navigation equipment so you can be comfortable with that aspect of soaring as you prepare for long solo cross-country flights. If you're already comfortable with a single-seater but not familiar with the landmarks or sources of lift around Minden, take a day-long flight with one of our cross-country instructors, then jump into the LS-4 on another day to try your hand at a solo flight for hundreds of kilometers. You'll be amazed at the ease of transition from one ship to the other, and thrilled with the fantastic performance of this very special sailplane.
