3. Introduction and Pilot Target
The
Point
is an easy-going certified EN/LTF-A glider
which is suitable for training and accuracy
competition. The main focus of design is on safety and
maximum forgiveness in handling, but with an eye to
handling and performance. The
Point
is not only
suitable for beginner pilots but also accuracy
competitor looking for a glider with maximum safety
and stability at the competition. Long brake travel and
excellent passive safety, as well as the good stability
make the good ideal for progression.
-LTF and EN certification
The
Point
is certified during official testing as LTF /EN-A.
The glider has been type-tested for “one-seated” use only.
-Suitability for the skilled pilot who attend the
accuracy competition.
The
Point
has been designed for the accuracy
competition. So it has very nice decent performance
when you use the brake line. It has also very nice
handing and turned intuitively.
-For the Point it has minimum of 65cm symmetrical
travel length at maximum total-load.
It would be dangerous to use the brake travel
according to those numbers, because it is not
practicable to measure the brake travel during flight,
and in turbulences the stall might occur with less
brake travel. If you want to use the whole brake travel
