Nova Phantom

[tnankie]

I've been grounded again for the last couple of weeks (should be back up next week) and spending a bit of time researching and reading forums. I found out that Nova have released a new wing called the Phantom. They claim similar trim performance to their Triton 2 (EN C) and similar performance on bar for the Phantom's speed range (I presume it doesn't have the same top speed). While having the claimed pilot demand and passive safety of a low end EN B.

Achieved by lots of cells mostly and throwing construction complexity restraints out the window.

Sounds kinda sexy, but the price looks like it will be equivalent to a comp wing. I think if a huge wadge of cash magically appeared in my pocket I'd like a test flight at the very least.
