In 1965 Rudolf Kaiser continued development of the two-seat Ka 2 and Schleicher Ka 7 by introducing the ASK 13, using a mixture of materials including metal, wood and fibreglass.

The company was founded in 1927 by Alexander Schleicher using money that he had won as a pilot in a gliding competition.

At 6:51 a.m. on Friday, November 9, the U.S. Air Force's advanced new flying-wing B-21 Raider stealth bomber lifted off the ground for the first time.
Kaiser then designed two glass-fibre gliders: the two-seat Schleicher ASK 21 trainer, which first flew in 1978, and the single-seat Schleicher ASK 23 which filled the role of the K 8. The ASK 23 first flew in 1983. When the certification process of the ASK 23 was complete Rudolf Kaiser retired at the age of 61.
