Great Video. Good job Paul. Looked like a bumpy morning there.

this is the future, molded composites (AKA glider) with an engine! In my radio controlled sailplane, we have 2 settings, one is called Camber (used to optimize slower speed when in thermals) and Reflex (-5 UP ailerons on the Pipistrel, which is used to increase speed when in sink with minimal altitude loss). The Relex setting allows faster flying with having to pitch down for speed.

I like the fuel burn they get and I definitely love the lines. Great lookin' airplane.

It's time to re-make this video!

Amazing aircraft! I imagine this one with the new Rotax engine! Should be a cross-country aircraft, specially in Europe. Perfect!

Amazing low fuel burn! I live in Denver, and I get nervous during turbulence, but if it's safe for a plane as small and light as this, then I suppose a much larger commercial aircraft would not be a problem.

Nice vid thanks.

You showed a lot of grace under pressure

Bovec ... one of most beutiful locations in Slovenia

isnt 220kph. 118 knots ? not 140!!

beautiful aircraft. seems like any glider pilot's dream plane. is it considered a powered glider or is it just based off of gliders?

@AVweb what camera and mount do you use?

Спасибо, крутой самолёт

@d73Hify WTF is "off of"? Do you mean on?

I've flown several hours in the Alpha. I am in pain after and hour of sitting in it.

These reviews are great! You should really invest in a new GoPro camera for scenery like this

220 km/h is 120 kt, not 140.

Not the gopro!

Wonder if the new small turbine engines could fit? Imagine cruising at 200 knots instead of 140. I would imagine the composite frame could handle it well. Maybe use wheelcovers to gain that extra efficiency on fuel.

The only virus I would want...

So, the Germans had their finger in this too? Well...all the better. Check out D-motor and EDM Aerotec CoAX 2D. While at it, check Flygfabriken Seagull.

BTW it's VirUHs

Might cost you a camara hahaha

I would suggest you to learn some more basics in English language, apart from "WTF" and similar trendy acronyms.

nice name … should have called it “the pandemic”
