SwiftMax 2
The Swiftmax 2 builds on its predecessor’s distance records, offering exceptional glide performance, thermalling efficiency, and passenger comfort in a robust design.
Its EN B certification and wide load range make it suitable for commercial pilots too
NEW FEATURES
- Improved performance with lower EN-B certification
- Robust enough for commercial use
- New airfoil, winglets, Rollercam trimmers, and 20mm risers
THE PILOT
The Swiftmax 2 is a high-performance tandem designed for XC flights with friends and commercial pilots flying demanding sites. Its solid, confidence-inspiring platform makes it an excellent choice for those seeking both performance and safety. It is suitable for experienced/intermediate pilots with the necessary qualifications.
THE TECH
The Swiftmax 2 shares design elements with the solo Swift series, including the SharkNose profile, 3-line architecture, and sail optimizations. The new version incorporates winglets to improve roll stability and reduce parasitic movements, enhancing comfort for both pilot and passenger.
It maintains a semi-lightweight construction for easy everyday use but has been reinforced in critical areas to improve durability and longevity. Fabric choices optimize weight savings while strengthening critical areas.
CERTIFICATION
- EN-B Certification for commercial tandem flights
- Wider certified weight range, with consistent performance and handling
IN FLIGHT
The light canopy and optimized trimming make it very easy on take off, from nill to strong winds.
Roll stability has a big impact on pilot and passenger comfort, the winglets reduce parasitic roll movements, often the cause of passenger motion sickness. Coupled with the dependable and solid profile the winglets creates a smooth magic carpet feel for high levels of comfort especially during long flights in turbulent conditions.
The lightweight design and trim optimisation offers energetic handling for efficient climbing. A high top speed with great stability and profile robustness, and the class leading glide performance make it the XC tandem of choice.
The easy energy conversion allows great flairs and accurate and smooth landings.
