Boomerang 12

When nature meets engineering. The Boomerang 12 marked the introduction of the 'Wave Leading Edge'.

Pilot Profile:

Competition and world class cross country pilots.

Compared to the Boomerang 11, the Boomerang 12 has improved performance in climb due to the Wave Leading Edge increasing lift and delaying the stall. It features better glide performance due to increased aerodynamic efficiency, better handling thanks to a lower aspect ratio and cell number, better all-round stability, especially in turbulence and at speed, and significant improvement in extreme flight manoeuvres, especially front and side collapses.
