Hi Jonathan,

Got a feedback from the P/M Hybrid L:

first flight today at Bribie beach, 2.5 hrs, very happy, wind got up to 15 knots while flying so was glad of the trimmers which gave me approx +7km/hr, very nice wing & very efficient, thanks

Now his friend wants one,

Take care,

Jean-Luc

Hi  sally and Apco team

Thanks for sending the hybrid L.  I received it over one week ago and had the chance to fly it, test it and let a few pilots fly it.

I am not disappointed at all and like it . I think it is a nice beginner glider and has good potential in schools and for beginner pilot as well.

 

Let me tell you my impressions after flying the Hybrid in different condition from…

Pilot Comment :: Eric Dufour – Paratour :: USA

The Hybrid is truly a great and easy to work with so far. Stable and floats over your head with extremely minimal input. It is light and yet not necessarily a hike&fly like glider. Pilot can literally bring it over his head and ground handle it with just pinky fingers as minimum efforts are needed to maneuver it. Response is direct and canopy does not tend to overshoot rapidly but instead gently rises and stops over you well centered. If pilot misses to catch the surge the canopy gently floats a bit forward and then back in place with no brake application. It appears to be very student friendly.  Commands are very soft at the start and increase tension as you go on deeper. However, deeper or abrupt inputs are barely needed as gliders simply responds well to your touch from the very start of the brake movement. The “language” passed from the canopy to the pilot via the brake tension is absolutely predictable and readable. It almost feels like you simply have your arms spread over your head and this is what is carrying you up or it feels like you become “one” with the glider.

and the rate of climb when catching the thermal core can not be tolerated by others It is not exaggeration to say that it is outstanding as much

PARAMOTEUR+ Magazine Reviews the Apco Hybrid (French)

Yes, the wing flys great. Went flying Saturday morning early for an
hour and half with my son. We both have Green Eagles. Turned 64 last
Wednesday and can’t believe I waited so long.  The Lift EU II is a great
wing. That was only my 14th flight. Thanks,  David.

LIFT EU II

LIFT EU II
David Whiting – USA

“THIS IS THE SECOND iteration of Apco’s Force, which sits above the Lift EZ in Apco’s specialist paramotor wing range. Designed to be an all-rounder it has been created with classic competition performance in mind rather than hooning round pylons; they have the NRG Pro if that’s your thang.
