We have been working on the many new models, the R&D process is in fact continuous. But we do not know the date we will release the ATIS 3. That depends on many points starting with the crunch, finished with the right weather. Sorry, cannot provide you with more details as they are not available.

Hi Martin, as we are still very happy with the Atis 2 you can work very slow :-) Let other companies change fast their models.... Sorry,I'm in hurry - have to go flying :-)

I think it will be very difficult to replace the Atis II. It will be considered one of the best 1-2/ EN B gliders of all time. To make an Atis III that would be even better would be a very difficult task indeed.

nice pics of the new prototype Atis 3. I like the new design configuration, that is a sweet looking glider!

I hope be more beter like Atis 2, example for Atis 2 was little strange the handling, to short, same Brontes 2. Is just opinion :) I love for ever first version Old one Atis and Brontes. Realy hope Atis 3 be more beter, I see this new Atis 3 in St Hilare Renata fly with this wings. Best Regards,

Hello Marius, ATIS 3 is different, I do not know if better or worse but there is nothing to compare with previous generation of ATIS. And as far as the brake range is concerned, well, I think that up to now this is of the EN B gliders on the market with the longest brake range ever - more than 60 cm (almost 70, depending on the weight of the pilot). You must have pretty long arms :-). Just check the pictures: http://www.sky-cz.com/n/en/gallery/photogallery/atis-3

Ahoj Man,:) I don't have the long arms:)) just want say abot Atis 2 is little diferent on handling I don't speak about how long is brake (line) 1m or 40cm, i fell little diferent in fly about old Atis:d. In rest was and is ok. I see all ready Atis3 in action Renata and Tomas fly in St Hilare. I wait with big interes soon fly and test some were Atis 3:) Best Regards

Yesterday I had the possibility to test the Atis 3 - we tried to compare with Anakis - for me the best LTF 1 glider on market.Comparing to Anakis the Atis 3 is much faster in trimm, also with speedsystem there is a markable difference. Generally I have to say you can't compare Atis 3 with Atis 2, from point of dynamic Atis 3 is more than the first Atis. It was zero wind or little from behind, I started without promlems backwards....I liekd the handling from the first seconds, the brakes are not that soft like Anakis, you fell the glider very nice. It#S the feeling of a good intermediate glider, thats the reason I like to compare next with Antea...The glider goes very quick in spiral, I was little surprised about the dynamic and speed in this figure. Alexandre Paux seem to be a wizard - never expected a nice wing like this...

We made comparison with another brand new LTF 1-2 glider, the FLY from Aircross. I flew the Fly in the size M overloaded, my friend the Atis 3 size L in normal load. Both gliders are nice for starting and have good handling, the Atis3 is more dynamic and agil. Also starting is for both gliders no big deal. The trimmspeed between the overloaded Aircross and the normal loaded Atis 3 were nearly the same. In full speed you have seen the big plus of Atis 3: he was more than a little faster, he pushed away like a rocket! He was much faster than the Fly, can't say how many kmh more it was. This week we planned some comparison flights in Norma, but the only glider with top landing was a Cima. Rain and wind made more comparison flights impossible. On Saturday we will have again our glide angle flying with 30 till 40 gliders, I will give you a report about results.

I like to tell you about the latest comparisons of Atis 3. we had again a glide-angle comp with about 40 pilot. Because the wind changed lot - some time a pilot flew with - sometimes against the wind - the results were not so absolut. You just can compare with pilots who were together in the air. I flew with Atis 3 L against a Advance Sigma 6 (LTF 2) and a Paratech LTF 2. I was much faster than Sigma, Atis 3 also had much better gliding. The performance of the Paratech was similar than the Atis 3. The saison will show us more....

Ahoj Martin, Last friday, I fly for the first time with the Atis 3M and is tru the handling is excelent close the first Atis. The take of, is very dinamic and canopy climb so easy and fast. I make one fly with the back wind and the canopy, come up very well withot problem. All so I make some small manover, like big Asimetric colaps and openig very weel, I try all so the Frontstall colaps here, have a bit tendention the negativ but was ok. All togheter is the realy good wing LTF 1-2, very dinamic and nice handling.:)
