The Vickers-Slingsby T-65 Vega is a 15 metre class sailplane. Of fibreglass construction, it features linked camber changing flaps and airbrakes and a retractable main and tailwheel. The Vega first flew on 3 June 1977. A simplified version called the Sport Vega has a non-retractable mainwheel and hinged trailing edge airbrakes instead of flaps.
