:
The German built Stemme S10VT is the top of the Stemme production line. The 'V' and the 'T' stand for variable pitch prop and turbo charged engine. What makes the Stemme so unique is the fact that the propeller folds up inside the nose cone for non-powered flight. This makes the aircraft totally "clean" as a normal glider would be, yet easily transfers itself to a normal airplane with the pull of a lever. Surprisingly, the little 115hp engine moves the Stemme up to 145 mph, all while sipping fuel. This makes it an economical airplane to fly. When soaring's your game, the Stemme can ride on thermals well above 30,000 feet! Don't forget the oxygen! Combining powered and non-powered flight, the Stemme is able to travel vast distances and set world records with less than 30 gal of fuel.
