Not often seen, a preserved glider! The Latvian gliding and general aviation centre at Cesis has this former DOSAAF Blanik on display, wings anchored to the ground. Its DOSAAF titles have been painted out. Bort 67 red can be found on top of the wings, although the wings can be detached easily... no msn-plate was found inside the aircraft.
