It’s reactive enough to provide flying enjoyment while remaining smooth and forgiving. Ideal for developing technique without stress and for fully enjoying first thermal flights.
Thanks to its predictable behavior, high tolerance to errors, and ability to absorb turbulence, the PRION 6 allows pilots to quickly go beyond the school environment and enjoy their first cross-country flights or soaring sessions. It’s a wing that makes you want to fly more and supports every step toward autonomy.
A confidence-inspiring wing designed for training
Designed for schools and beginner students, the PRION 6 offers outstanding stability, smooth reactions in turbulent conditions, and excellent damping. Collapses are mild and the wing returns to straight flight without pilot input. Its intuitive handling reassures students while helping them learn technical gestures without stress.
With this in mind, NOVA designed the PRION 6 using durable materials and well-placed reinforcements to withstand intensive use in training while remaining lightweight. The reinforced leading edge, simplified line layout, and clear risers make this wing a reliable tool for instructors and a safe bet for beginner pilots.
