Jonker JS3 Rapture is a single seater high performance FAI 15/18-metre class glider sailplane with a MD-TJ 42 turbine jet sustainer engine.

I inserted the music only to cover the comments of the speaker regarding other planes not visible in the video and some comments from the public. The original turbine sound is audible and of high quality.
