HpH 304S


The HpH 304S (Shark) is a top-tier, high-performance sailplane designed for both racing enthusiasts and the leisure pilot. Its convertible wing configuration allows pilots to adjust between a 15-meter and an 18-meter wingspan by utilizing long and short wingtip extensions. This flexibility provides versatility for different racing conditions, optimizing performance depending on the specific needs of the pilot and the task at hand.

The HpH 304S is offered as a 304JS with Jet Turbine Sustainer System, 304ES Front Electric Sustainer (FES System), 304RES Self-launcher RES (Retractable Electric System) or 304MS Self launcher with Binder Solor System.

What’s particularly noteworthy about the HpH 304S is the emphasis on comfort, design, and prestige alongside raw performance. While the Shark is not simply a rehash of previous models, it represents the cutting edge of glider design, focusing on what has traditionally been considered the "State-of-the-Art." It's clear that this sailplane targets those who value a blend of top-tier performance, comfort, and the prestige of flying a cutting-edge machine.
