Pilot profile :
SUperSImple refers to the construction of the glider and not to the flying experience. SuSi is
dynamic when flown fast; pilots should be experienced and with good glider handling skills to
control the wing during this style of flying. We recommend the use of this wing for Pilots
fulfilling the demands of a Pilot-profile EN-B and above.
The glider has been tested for ´solo´/single person use only.
Suitability for training
The AirDesign SuSi is NOT suitable for training or use in the school environment (except as a
ground handling/kite wing)
Recommended weight range
The SuSi has no specific weight range. The maximum weight in-flight is 120kg. The take-off
weight includes pilot plus clothing, glider, harness, equipment etc.
Altering the take-off weight changes also the speed of the wing. As a reference we state the
take-off speed at an in-flight weight of 85kg. A change of weight of about 10kg results in a
change of speed of around 2km/h.
NOTE: In some countries it is mandatory to fly gliders which are EN/LTF type tested. In this case
the gliders must be flown in the specified weight range (see at tech data).
