The Gin Bonanza 3 brings two-liner performance to the EN-C class, creating a new paradigm for sports-class cross-country flying. It’s a wing that delivers the glide and speed you’d expect from a much higher-rated wing, but with handling and safety characteristics that make it accessible to experienced C-class pilots.
Gin’s shark-nose technology and optimised internal structure give the Bonanza 3 exceptional pitch stability, particularly when accelerated. The two-line layout minimises drag, resulting in a glide ratio that genuinely surprises when you compare it to conventional three-liner C wings. The handling is direct and precise, with excellent feedback and a satisfying turn that makes thermalling efficient and enjoyable.
The Bonanza 3 is designed for pilots who want to push their cross-country distances without stepping up to D-class certification. It’s fast, it glides beautifully, and it rewards a pilot who flies actively and confidently.
