pilots.
The EDEN-4 PPG has great performance for
the more experienced. |

Speed-Flying wing has been completely updated
for the 2009 season
The WHISTLER 2
has improved stability and
we have
achieved our goals of simplicity and durability |

The Magus 6 is now
available
---- What
Jean-Luc had to say:::::
VERY
nice.. Can I have one?? Oh hang on.. got one
already :)
My view on the Magus 6
I'm just an ordinary, not so young anymore, guy
and pilot with too many kids, wives and work, so
competitions are a bit out of the window for me
:-(.
That doesn't mean I’m not competitive! I was
lucky enough to receive my MAGUS 6 proto late
spring and after taking a bit of time to get
acquainted and "learn" the glider's potential, I
started to really relax and enjoy that fantastic
machine. THANKS' Mac for letting me have one.
Flying conditions in the UK, this year, have
been "below par" to say the least, BUT after
doing a few short (training) XC's in late spring
i just started to do 100km flights one after
another, including the longest flight (so far)
134.2km under a difficult sky beating even the
"southerners", a week later another 100km+
(longest of the day again. If I had logged my
flights in the UK XC league I would be in second
place(558.4km in 6 flights) with still a chance
to reach top place. All that without even
trying.
I have been flying different versions of the
Magus since it was introduced and the MAGUS 6
has everything, turns on a penny, superb sink
rate, speed AND stability, WOW-GLIDE :-).All
you've got to do is relax and let it fly and
show you where the lift is. ----- Thanks’
AGAIN Mac... It just gets better and better |
