Description
The Council Oak Senior Squadron is a proud unit who history can be traced directly back to the World War II Tulsa Squadron. Today, the squadron focuses on aviation education and search and rescue training and the emblem is a representation of its flight-focused mindset. The United States Air Force Auxiliary Civil Air Patrol uses the L-23 as a trainer for cadets. The Super BlanĂk is an improved version of the original LET L-13 Blanik. The cockpit is somewhat roomier in the L-23, and some differences are a swept fin and a T-tail, and on the L-23 flaps were deleted to save weight since they were rarely used on the LET L-13. The aircraft has a two-piece canopy, where the front part opens to the right, and the rear part opens upwards and to the rear. This was done to improve vision compared to the L-13.
