The Comanche was the first JW EPP Sailplane made. The original version was called the "Ruffneck." It was later designed to look more like the Piper Comanche. With a SD6061 airfoil, it flies very fast, with great energy retention and capability of inverted flight. The Comanche is a very aerobatic plane as well as a combat plane with a good recovery rate.
