Supair Leaf — A mid-B That Competes on Comfort, Not Performance
The strengths are unambiguous. Low-B comfort in rough thermals, a climb rate that holds its own at the top of the B class, and brakes that answer precisely what you ask of them. Comfort, climb and handling together in one package is not a common combination in the mid-B segment. The condition is glide. The front half of the mixed B group — and that's where it stops. For a pilot who wants to go glide-for-glide with the best mid-Bs and stretch XC distance, this wing will come up short. The Leaf was not built to win on a spec sheet. It trades a few percent of performance for a better day in the air. If that trade makes sense to you, few mid-Bs make the day feel this short.
