The  TRAIL  is  designed  for  superior  maneuverability,  robustness  and  durability. 

Experience its outstanding flying qualities with our Dealer and note the steel welded 

frame,  the  full  covering  in  light  alloy,  the  sturdy  landing  gear  and,  above  all,  the 

capability of folding the wing in less than two minutes completely by yourself. 

 

Enjoy  the  freedom TRAIL allows  in  the  sky and on  the ground: no  fabric or other 

stuff suffering from sun exposure and humidity. 

Fear for hail, sand dust or snow?: fold the wings and wrap the TRAIL with a simple 

covering just like a car.

But TRAIL offers  its best  in  flight:  full  turning capability without adverse yaw,  safe 

stall behavior, ever responsive to the controls and never sluggish.

instrumentation, such as on our demonstrator, the empty weight is still at 595 lbs.
