kg/m2 ist die richtige Wahl für 
alle, die mit leichter Ausrüstung 
aufsteigen wollen und beim 

Ab stieg dynamischen Flugspass

25 und 27  erfordern einen weit-

gehend aktiven Flug stil und somit 
Intermediate- Erfahrung.  Die

3.5 kg/m2 the PI 3 with its well 

balanced canopy is easy to fly, 
offering maximum passive safety. 
In this range the PI 3 is suitable 
for beginners and leisure pilots.

Hike & Fly Range

The Hike & Fly range – wing 

loading between 3.5 and 4.5 kg/
m2 – is the right choice for those 
who like to walk up with light 
equipment and have some dy-
namic fun on the flight down. 19, 

21, 23, 25 and 27 sizes require 

a safe and active flying style, as 
well as some Intermediate-lev-
el experience. The PI 3 16 is a 
small wing and requires Expert 
experience, even in the Hike & 
Fly Range.

En vol thermique

En vol thermique jusqu’à une 
charge de 3,5 kg/m2, la PI 3 avec 
sa voilure bien équilibrée est fa-
cile à piloter, et offrent une sécu-
rité passive maximale. Dans cette 
plage, la PI 3 est bien adaptée aux 
débutants et aux pilotes de loisir.

En marche & vol

une charge entre 3,5 et 4,5 kg/
m2 est le bon choix pour ceux qui 
voudraient monter à pied avec 
un équipement léger et se faire 
plaisir de façon dynamique dans 
le vol de descente. Les tailles de 

19, 21, 23, 25 et 27 m2 requièrent 

un style de pilotage sûr et actif, 

ainsi qu’une expérience de niveau 
Inter médiaire. La 16 est une aile

pé rience de niveau Expert, même
