The INKA II was a Yugoslav school glider designed in 1937-38 by professor Dr. Anton Kuhelj. It had a simple wooden and fabric construction intended for use by gliding schools with limited workshops. Supported by V-struts, the glider's wing had two spars and the front of the fuselage was covered in plywood. It was used for ridge soaring lessons until World War 2 at slopes near Bloke, Slovenia, being launched by bungee and having a best glide of 17 and minimum sink of 0.85 m/s.

Design by: professor Dr. ing. Anton Kuhelj. Year of manufacturing: 1937-38. V struts supported wing with two wing spars. Fuselage front part covered with plywood, rest with fabric. Purpose: learning to ridge soaring Start: bungee The glider was designed as much simple, because it was intended to build in small group of enthusiasts in glider schools, which poses no hi tech workshops and skills. The glider was in use till outbreak of WW2, on slopes of Bloke in Slovenia.
