1) Expansion of Flight Performance - Lighter



ONE of our primary areas of interest is expanding flight performance and efficiencies. Since 1994, Foundation members have made significant contributions in the area of very lightly loaded designs, and 14 FAI World Gliding Records have been achieved. 

Pioneering efforts in this area have led to approval of the first new international gliding class in many years. The Microlift Glider moves man closer to the flight of birds and other creatures.
