What Customers Are Saying...

"Just wanted you to know that I'm having a great time with my little ATF trike with a Stratus wing.  It's a lot of fun to fly.
The glide ratio is terrific..."

The North Wing Stratus light-trike wing is designed for optimal performance on our ATF Soaring Trike, and is built with the high quality that our customers have come to expect.  The Stratus has a new wing design that will give you an exceptional soaring experience.  The Stratus is designed for improved sink rate and glide, and allows you to shut down your engine with confidence.  The state-of-the-art airfoil and a streamlined kingpost ensures you will have great glide as well.  The Stratus can get you where you want to go!

The Stratus uses stability technology from the topless hang gliders to improve performance. By using only one bridle line and an outboard sprog (washout strut), we have achieved excellent pitch stability while reducing drag.  The efficient airfoil used by the North Wing Stratus provides superb acceleration through turbulence, while displaying very docile flight characteristics in yaw and pitch.  The Stratus shows excellent stall parameters straight ahead and in turns.  Hang Gliders are adequate on the light trikes but let's face it, in light lift... most of the time you will keep your engine on.  Not with the North Wing Stratus!  You will be amazed at how light of thermal lift you can really play with!  View more photos of the North Wing Stratus in the Photo Gallery.
