PAPILLON RAQOON: LIGHTWEIGHT,
SAFE, HIGH PERFORMANCE
Congratulations, you have chosen the new lightweight A-Class glider PAPILLON RAQOON. We
would like to thank you for your confidence in Papillon and see this as confirmation to contin-
ue to pursue and further develop our uncompromising quality standards. We wish you many
enjoyable flights and great moments in the air.
If you are preparing for the launch with your Raqoon, you know that it doesn’t take much to
start, because this is what the Raqoon was designed for. With its hybrid properties, it starts
with 30% less wind and running. The control phase becomes easier. Its properties in the air also
help you: with its lighter canopy it wants to lead you into the thermals.
The dialogue is important to us because we are always trying to optimize the products in terms
of “from pilots for pilots”. The exchange of experience at Papillon is a high priority. Therefore,
we are looking forward to active contributions in the form of suggestions and criticism. If ques-
tions remain open, we will gladly help you at any time.
See you UP in the sky!
Your Papillon Paragliders Team
