Hybrid Power Wing 500 & 550
This Devolpment comes after extensive work by the Apco R&D team.
The
Hybrid gives you all the best characteristics from the
traditional Apco Power Wing 400 & 500 and much more.
It delivers lift greater than the 550 and the exact handling of the
400, while giving a higher performance in glide ratio than any other rectangular
wing on the market.
