A Swiss brand renowned for its high standard of construction and flying qualities of its gliders,
ADVANCE has been active on the world market for over 10 years and is amongst the present
market leaders. The management team has not changed since ADVANCE was founded, which may
explain the stability of the company and the trust shown by its customers : ROBERT GRAHAM

(Sales and Marketing). A strong team with many years of experience, able to react quickly to the
evolution of the market and sport. The principal team is complemented by international test pilots.
ADVANCE is also no stranger to success in competition, with numerous titles including those of
world champion, european champion and winner of the World Cup, not forgetting several world
distance records.
ADVANCE celebrated the 10th anniversary of the first wing in 1999. The OMEGA 5 is the
19th model marketed by ADVANCE.
The unique philosophy with the development of the gliders has made ADVANCE a brand
recognised for its individual character, right up to date technology, utilising the latest perfor-
mance and security.
The actual range is particularly consistent and in tune with the expectations of the market :
with no fewer than 5 models, there is truly something for everyone, from the beginner to the
competition pilot : ALPHA / EPSILON / SIGMA / OMEGA / BI BETA.
In addition ADVANCE offers a full range of harnesses.

PRODUCTION

We use the latest production techniques at our own facilities. The plant operators skills are con-
tinually updated and the entire production line is regularly checked. This guarantees our custo-
mers superbly finished gliders with the greatest safety and performance features.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND RECYCLING

The protection of the environment is a decisive consideration when we develop, choose materi-
als for and produce a new ADVANCE product. We exclusively use raw materials that stand up to
these qualities and use environmentally friendly practises. When one day your glider has come
to the end of its useful life please be sure to separate the metal parts from the lines, risers and
canopy and dispose of it with the environment in mind.
