What's the difference between "mullet" and "flare"?

[@r.k.2487]

"Flare" is the manufactor of the famous Glider "Moustache". "Mullet" is a glider of the manufactor "Flow". Allthough "glider" is probably not the right word. As they're not regular paraglider I'd call them "Parakites".

@@r.k.2487 sure, but it ilook more as paragliding than kite. But can you tell us the difference betwen the 2 please ?

[@r.k.2487]

@@lololala4164 A paraglider has a balanced trim speed in stationary flight. To accelerate it, the profile must be actively changed by the foot accelerator, tilting the profile forward. Changes in direction are made by the brake lines, which change the profile at the trailing edge. In contrast, the Moustache reaches its maximum speed with non-engagement. The brake lines not only control the trailing edge, but the entire profile is changed with them. A wing like the Moustache MUST be flown actively, is much faster in trim speed and reactions. A completely different flying sport, not meant for thermal flying.

@@r.k.2487 Thank you for your detailed and accurate reply. As a professional pilot for almost 30 years, I can confirm what you said. But I asked the wrong question, I wanted to know the difference in behaviour and performance between the Mullet and the Moustache ?

[@r.k.2487]

@@lololala4164 I really wish I could answer that. I'm going to fly the Moustache in February in SA. I've been flying at the coast in Netherland. Watched some local guys who mounted Moustache-like risers to a Ozone R1 V4 21qm kite. Compared to this the Moustache looked oldfashioned. Never seen that much dynamic flying before.
