THE PERFECT BALANCE!
We are learning more and more. We are learning with every prototype wing we build and analyse. We are learning about performance wings and safety on the bottom of the range. More and more we are able to combine performance and safety to a new level of balance: here is the SONATA 2!
SONATA 2 TECHNICAL FEATURES
The SONATA 2 is not only the small sister of the SYMPHONIA 2. Because of the higher safety level it can afford a very big extended weight range to offer the pilot or the school more options. The covered lines make it easier for not so experienced pilots. The take off behaviour as well as the roll stability are excellent: a MUST HAVE for a modern wing in that class.
The feedback from active schooling with the SONATA 2 is confirming, that we reached our goal: takoff is very easy, roll stability excellent and most noticeable: the performance stands out from all others.
SONATA 2 TESTING
As always, our test pilots put the SONATA 2 through its paces. It pays off: safety trainers value our gliders for their good behavior during extreme manoeuvres. The same applies to the SONATA 2: it is a pleasure to test it: very unspectacular in its reactions!

SONATA 2 WEIGHT RANGES
The take off weight on the scale includes pilot + equipment + wing.
For schooling and thermal flying it is recommended to stay in the normal range.
For high wind conditions the extended range offers more speed, energy and possibilities.
