The Airflex is based on a Reflex profile but has an amazingly easy inflation and easy loading for takeoff compared to other wings made with the same profile type. This is due to a new generation of light leading edge, to an optimum placement of the attachment points, and to an original line cascade which utilizes the complete efficiency of the profile.
