Introduction - Axis Comet 3 Pilot's Manual

Introduction

When setting out to design
our introduction level cross-
country glider we had a clear
target: we wanted to create
the best paraglider possible
for novice performance pilots.
Pilots who want top
performance and sensitive
handling, but who rightly
demand ever more security.
The Comet 3 is that glider,
keeping the comfortable but
precise characteristics of Axis
gliders and also its
predecessor.
With an internal structure
based on the successful Vega
Axis Paragliders

V glider and including our
unique differential speed
system. This means pilots can
achieve a good sink-rate at
half or one-third speed bar,
and maintain good stability at
maximum speed: in short, it
gives the glider excellent
usable speed.
The Comet 3 is an
intermediate glider (EN-B) and
is meant for novice pilots who
hold a full paragliding pilot
licence. It is designed as an
ideal beginner cross-country
glider, suitable also for
experienced pilots who fly
regularly and who will enjoy a
performance glider with
greater safety characteristics.
Comet 3 is not recommended
for less experienced pilots or
complete novice pilots.
This manual provides
information about the glider,
which will help you to fly
safely and keep your wing in
good condition. If after
reading this manual you have
any further questions, please
don't hesitate to contact us or
any authorised Axis dealer.
Thank you for choosing the
new Comet 3 from Axis.
