Allegra is a performance glider that carries on the success that the Futura achieved. The Allegra has a modern concept and design. It is based on a new Hi-Tech profile found on the Tigra and Bagheera. The Allegra is a remarkable improvement on the Futura in all aspects: it has sporty, quick and immediate handling, superior performance (over the Futura) and has easy, friendly behavior. The 4 sizes of the glider are fully certified in Standard class by ACPUL/AFNOR/CEN and DHV Class 1-2 Trim and Accelarated in Small Medium and Large. It is a major achievement for us to launch a glider that exceeds the Futura in performance and handling and in addition is certified in Standard class. This proves and reconfirms the safety of this new glider. It was also our prime goal to launch a glider for the "Recreational" pilot that could deliver Top-class performance combined with Standard class Safety. We are finally there and believe that there is no parallel product that exists on the market today. The glider is also cut in a new color design, to make it look both, contemporary and fresh. The glider is in full production and orders are welcome. |
