Gliding—by far the most emotional way to fly. No disturbing engine sounds and covered surfaces in the viewing area of the pilot. Back to the roots—puristic and transparent flying, powered by nature. With Volito the joy of flying is in the foreground without relinquishing on safety and comfort. With help of the spacious side-by-side cockpit the fascination of flying can be shared immediately by the occupants. An interesting interplay between smooth curves and edged character-lines coin the exciting and interesting exterior design of the glider.
