Detailed description
"Rid'Air Team's Opinion: The BIBETA 6 is the ultimate workhorse for professionals, but also a delight for recreational pilots. Advance has further simplified line sorting and inflation, which is a major asset for back-to-back flights. Its longevity is legendary, and its in-flight behavior is absolutely serene. It's the choice of reason and pleasure for those who want a tandem wing that does everything well, effortlessly."
Advance BIBETA 6: The Professional Tandem Benchmark
The BIBETA 6 was developed with a clear objective: to make daily life easier for tandem pilots. Thanks to maximally simplified line geometry (only three risers and a reduced number of lines), takeoff preparation is faster than ever. It's a robust wing, designed to withstand hundreds of flights while retaining its initial flight characteristics.
During takeoff, the wing rises very smoothly, effortlessly, and without any hard points, even in nil wind or light tailwind. In flight, the BIBETA 6 stands out with precise handling and reduced control pressure, allowing the pilot to stay fresh even after several thermal flights in a day. Its pitch stability and damping make it an extremely reassuring wing for the passenger.
Advance's cutting-edge technology, including the Sliced Diagonals and an optimized internal structure, results in a wing that is both lightweight and extremely durable. The BIBETA 6 is available in two sizes (38 and 41) to cover an extended weight range from 100 to 225 kg.
The BIBETA 6 is an EN-B certified wing intended for qualified tandem pilots. Its design aims for simplicity and safety, but it remains a high-performance aircraft requiring rigorous management of passive safety and passenger comfort.
