Bonne maniabilité, facile à poser. Lattes en alu préformées. Meilleures performances que les Lancer, plutot comparables à la gamme des Harrier.

This guy was a new novice when he bought a pretty nice Javelin 167 hang glider. And when I say nice, this thing was a real beauty. As we all know, before the season is out you are lookin for something with more performance for them boomin ass desert days when 20-40 milers are a no brainer if you have a great glider and can also be done by a pilot with some patience and intelligence, with a much less performance bird. For this guy he wanted the longer glide and so he traded me that Javelin for a Comet 2 Owens Valley Racer.. So my son still has it, it was a glider that we used in the progression to high performance with students in our hang gliding school. It is a pretty glider, Orange with a spectrum on the main body of the wing. I would say it has about 25-30% double surface area at most, it has a pivot type floating crossbar with the exposed crossbar. So it is kinda comparable to the old WW Harrier models. It is pretty easy on the handling side and the speed trim is real nice hands off. This glider was really nice to fly on a 15-20 MPH day at the North Side of the Point when I decided to leave the Axis and the HP2's on the truck to test fly this glider. The bench up was sweet, and though I did not push it to Lone peak that day, I was over 10,000 ASL over Potato hill. Coring in thermals was easy, and it climbed with my fat butt on it up to 1200 fpm in thermals that day. The hardware is pretty sweet making for easy assembly. For an easy to fly intermediate glider for beginning soaring or just low stress flying I would rate this glider as a real cool 7. I would think that for tandem ridin the 200+ square ft model would be pretty nice if you could find one in excellent condition. But then why listen to me, go try one for the sheer "FUN" of it, because as we all know, if you are not flying because it is fun then you are flying for the wrong reasons when it comes to hang gliding, in my own humble opinion.
hahahahah, ya wanna get real scared????? I mean really sphincter tightening scared as hell scared.. Oh ok that is not the exact quote from Dan Akroyd on twilight zone, but you get the idea. Come on out to Utah for some sphincter tighting thermal blasters that will have you raving like a luna-tick for a long damn time.
