Prace nad wznowieniem produkcji LS4b (tym razem w Polsce) przesuwają się do przodu.
Poszukujemy informacji zwrotnej odnośnie potencjalnego zainteresowania tym typem.
Planowany koszt dla pierwszych pięciu egzemplarzy to 29k euro netto, za szybowiec gotowy do lotu wraz z podstawowymi instrumentami.

The LS4-b introduces next improvements to previous models:
- new results from crash tests became the basis for the design of the safety cockpit
- all control hook-ups are of the automatic type
- has a vertical height increased by 0.11 m (.38 ft) to 1.43 m (4.69 ft)
- the -b fuselage is 0.13 m (0.43 ft) shorter at 6.66 m (21.84 ft)
- the landing gear is not only robust but is able to absorb high sink speeds
- the wing shells are made in carbon as well
- the instrument panel tilts up with the canopy
- it has an optional tail fin water ballast system
- as an option winglets can be fitted to the LS4-b; this modification makes circling even easier – especially at high wing landing
All those “typical LS” details are the reason that clubs now use the LS4-b universally for all purposes from instruction to cross-country flying and many of the individual pilots flying LS4-b just for joy it as well.
