SIGMA 8 ready for test flights from February 2011
The development of the SIGMA 8 top performance intermediate has been completed. From February 2011 you will be able to book a test flight with your ADVANCE dealer.
The new SIGMA 8 is a sporty top-performing intermediate - a real Cross Country Free Rider with a high fun factor. The following points distinguish the new model:
Good performance & stable: The true three line design provides improved performance and ideal pitch behaviour⇒ Glide ratio 10 and a useable top speed of 55 km/h
Sporty & dynamic: A new profile and the perfect combination of wing twist and lift distribution promises a high fun factor ⇒ more direct and precise manoeuvring in all axes
Evolutionary & light: Reduced weight thanks to evolutionary construction using the latest technology ⇒ the SIGMA 8 is almost a kilo lighter than its predecessor
