New Features; Target Group - Nova Prion Manual

We have improved the maximum speed, as well as the stability and the glide
ratio in accelerated flight. So the PRION is the perfect wing to gather
experience in cross country flight.
The greatest strength of the PRION lies in its impressive climbing performance.
The wing can be turned very slow and tight, which allows the pilot to use small
thermals efficiently. Thanks to the precise handling characteristics, it is easy to
increase or decrease the amount of banking. The combination of efficient and
relaxed thermalling is without equal.

New Features


Split A-risers with magnet fixation

Dirtholes on the stabilo

Labelled risers for B-Stall and Ears

New position and fixation of the brake pulleys for better
ergonomics

A vector band behind the cell openings maintains a very good
shape of this important part of the wing.

Target Group

The PRION aims to appeal to a wide range of pilots. On one side there are
beginners, who are looking for a very safe and failure forgiving glider. Of
course they want to avoid getting bored by their glider after some time.
On the other side there are pilots with some amount of experience, who want
sensitive handling characteristics combined with a maximum margin of safety.
Pilots requirements:
The PRION is approved for schooling, so of course we don't make any
demands on the pilot's skills, but we would like to remind every pilot of the
importance of individual responsibility at this point.
Every pilot, who flies on their own has to be able to decide if their skills and
equipment is adequate for the respective conditions. The PRION offers superior
safety but even on such a glider with maximum passive safety, misjudgements
may have serious consequences.
The best way to avoid misjudgements is a defensive approach to the sport.
Sometimes it makes sense to pass on a flight, instead of getting yourself into
