Bernd Weber, the manager of Thalhofer and co-founder of the rigid wing manufacturer A.I.R. Aeros is working on a high-performance competition glider. Precisely because we do not do facelifts, our elaborately designed hang glider models are timeless, have excellent spare part availability, high resale value and are produced in quantities other manufacturers can only dream of!įor many years, we have been able to consistently achieve strong sales with our successful models Perfex, Funfex, Lightfex and Airfex, which is why we will continue to manufacture them without modification.

A look around the web shows that we did not miss out on the development: The owners of the more than 1.000 Fexes in use are happy and content, praise their gliders' excellent handling and are enthusiastic about their flight performance, their low weight, their robustness and their unique short-pack possibility.
