Section 1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1. I N T R O D U C T I O N
Thank you for purchasing an Aeros trike wing.
The Still -17 is a two sitter trike wing with 30 % double surface, designed for the wide range of
pilots: from beginners through to the most experienced pilots who want to have fun in powered
flying. The design concept of the Still-17 was very simple: it had to be easy to take off and land,
easy to fly, easy to pack up and transport. It had to have the minimum possible weight without
compromising structural strength.
We believe that we have succeeded in all aspects of the Still -17 design. Take off and landing
with the Still -17 is very easy. It is very well coordinated wing with smooth and predictable
feedback given to the pilot. Control pressures are light whilst retaining a stable feel.
A small percentage double surface with a minimum amount of battens for maintaining the
airfoil has resulted in significant weight reduction and a fast set up time.
The structural strength of the Still -17 is sufficient for different flight conditions with defined
wing load.
Please read and be sure you thoroughly understand this Manual before flying your

Be sure you are thoroughly familiar with set up, break down, preflight and maintenance
