About

 

Welcome to the OzPrey website, home of the EPP OzPrey Slope Glider. The Ozprey wing span is 1270mm (50 inches) allowing for excellent lift capabilities while maintaining its ability for high speed.

Focus of this site

This site is dedicated to documenting the development of the OzPrey as I seek to improve it's design and flight characteristics (a development blog). In the R&D blog you can read and follow the evolution of the prototype designs.

 

Can I buy an OzPrey?

If in reading about my experience with the OzPrey you decide that you would like to have your very own OzPrey, you can purchase one through the online ordering page. I have already supplied several local fliers with OzPreys after they have seen its performance. Send me an email to check availability.

 

Flight characteristics

The OzPrey is well suited for the slope glider who wants to go beyond their standard slope gliding wing. The OzPrey will take you to the next step, a very stable plane while giving you excellent soaring capabilities and satisfying speed.

 

The OzPrey name

The Osprey is a bird, which is similar in appearance to an Eagle. At one of my local flying slopes they are a pair that are always soaring and checking things out, I have always found the Osprey a graceful bird.
