Designed by engineer Piet Alsema the Sagitta first flew in 1961, after three years of planning. It has an all-wood fuselage and wooden wings with fabric cover. The Sagitta was the first "standard class" glider design to appear from the Netherlands. It was a modern high performance design with features like automatic connecting control surfaces on assembly and a backward sliding canopy that can be fixed open in flight at several positions.

There are currently 6 flying Sagitta's left over in the world. For many years there were only 5, but recently (in 2009) s/n 013 finished restoration in South Africa and is flying again at Magaliesberg.
