oh my goodness you rock. Just about ready to get my symphonia 2. Thank you for me now being fully rooted in confidence. You unlocked the sky a little for me today wing-sister, thank you! . I will study this video much. I want to fly like you.
Quand même, c'est un truc de fou ! Félicitation pour cette grande maitrise, et en plus le regard et l'attitude prouve votre sang froid ! J'en suis bouche-bé.
If the student is very advanced and comfortable with a more talkative wing (moves more in air), then it's a great wing, but definitely like giving a low to mid B glider of a few years ago to a student - it definitely needs proper active piloting. The Sonata is a little more dampened in energy and talkativeness but still sporty and still relays the air, so easy to thermal with, hit cloudbase, and go xc,. Good for a season of a new and frequent flyer, or a couple of seasons for someone that doesn't fly too often, to progress with and get comfortable, then step up to symphonia or tenor/beat safely after 100 hours without sacrificing any fun, but definitely being safe and confidence-inspiring, which makes for a longer-term pilot to progress. Sonata isn't the fastest and doesn't deal with cutting through gusts as well as the Symphonia, but it's still quite agile and responsive, much moreso than BGD Adam or Gin Bolero, those sorts of A wings. Symphonia, and especially Symphonia 2 is only an A wing in safety. In performance and energy/active piloting advancedness, it needs an already progressed pilot to be good, or they may be overwhelmed for a while.
