MENTOR 7 Light
Hybrid 2.5-liner. The XC machine.
Pilot Profile:
The MENTOR 7 Light (EN/LTF B) is a state-of-the-art "teacher" in the tradition of the MENTOR series (performance, smooth in flight, safety), which does not tend to overshoot during inflation and impresses with an extreme flight behaviour that is manageable for its class. As a hybrid 2.5-liner, it is suitable for cross-country pilots who are experienced in handling EN B gliders, or who want to get the maximum out of a flight using the speed-bar and HAC handles.The MENTOR 7 Light is a state-of-the-art "teacher" in the EN-B class, combining the best of a 2.5-liner design with intelligent lightweight construction. Aimed at cross-country pilots looking for comfort and performance, it features 66 cells, speedbrake riser 2.0 with HAC handles for pitch control, and an aspect ratio of 5.5.
