RYKTEBØRSEN – Omega 9 – Sigma 9 – Peak 3

Mange venter nok utålmodig på nye vinger. Hvem vet, kanskje sinkes ferdigstillelsen av EN-D vinger av  Air Turquise sitt nei til å teste/sertifisere de mest avanserte i denne gruppen.

Personlig venter jeg spent på Omega 9. Ryktene sier at både den og Sigma 9 trolig ikke er ferdige før i beste fall på seinsommeren. ( http://www.paraglidingforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=352933#352933 )

Peak 3 skal visstnok være klar i april. Fra Niviuks ferskeste nyhets-mail: …Keep your eyes to the skies for Peak 3’s imminent arrival….More info at niviuk.com

2- eller 3-liner?

Denne diskusjonen er for Advance Omega 9 men gjelder i prinsippet alle merker.
Julian Molina sitt innlegg (sitatet) dekker mitt og trolig mange XC-piloters syn. Jeg ønsker ikke å fly en 2-liner som f.eks ikke tåler regn!

«The market for XC oriented EN D’s has not disappeared and it should be fulfilled. There must be a small reduction in the number of pilots in that market, as the ones that where interested in competing in the serial class may have already moved to the EN C (sports) class. However, I tend to think that group of pilots is rather small.

There is no other reason I can think of why leisure XC pilots that had been flying the regular EN D gliders would want to move to anything else. If the manufacturer can produce a regular EN D glider better than the previous generation like it has been the norm in past, then they should do it as the market is still there.»
