NO TOW PLANE REQUIRED!
Vertigo Airshows introduces the SUPER SALTO
The world's most powerful self launching
jet sailplane
There's nothing else like it in the world! With
its military-grade 225 pound thrust jet engine,
the Super Salto jet sailplane self-launches and
performs both a classic sailplane aerial ballet
and screamin' low-level jet aerobatics. No
scheduling conflicts and valuable airshow time
wasted climbing to altitude. No time wasted hooking
up a tow plane or taxiing clear after the performance.
THE SUPER SALTO JET SAILPLANE
Powered by the PBS TJ-100 jet engine, the highly
modified Super Salto sailplane is the only sailplane
on the airshow circuit capable of performing a low-
level, jet-powered airshow performance. Utilizing
its powerful jet engine, the Super Salto performs
a high-speed aerobatic climb to altitude without a
tow plane, followed by a spectacular exhibition of
graceful sailplane aerobatics, choreographed to
classical music, and featuring the world-famous
Vertigo Airshows smoke.

When the original altitude
is spent, most sailplanes must land.
But not this sailplane! By simply spooling up the
jet engine, the graceful sailplane is quickly
transformed into a true low-level aerobatics machine.
Accompanied by an ever-quickening musical score, the
Super Salto cavorts at ground level with loops, rolls,
hammerheads, spins and vertical penetration never
dreamed of by a sailplane.
