 Moyes has applied its extensive knowledge of glider production gained through years of developing peak performance gliders to create a glider designed to heighten the pure enjoyment of flight for all pilots - The Moyes Sonic.
The SONIC is a 60% double surface flex wing with round down tubes and a padded speed bar. The frame is made with Moyes custom seamless 6061T6 aluminium tubing which possesses excellent flex characteristics for maximum strength. The SONIC also boasts Moyes renown neutral static balance, granting the pilot greater ground handling control. In addition, the SONIC's slow speed handling properties allow the pilot to soar with minimum effort and maximum safety while aiding in trouble-free landings.
