The JOIN´T is equipped with the trend-setting Jet-Flap system, just like theMESCAL and the TEQUILA.Air is conducted from the bottom sail (pressure area) to the top sail (low-pressure area) and isblown out there with higher speed. The connection is established through jet shaped channels,which are located in the rear section of the wing.When increasing the angle-of-attack the danger of airflow interruption and subsequent stalling isminimized.Results: the constant airflow delays the stall even at great angles-of-attack, the flyable minimumspeed is lowered and the pilot has a higher incidence range. This is of great importance, especiallyduring starting and landing.Of course, the Jet-Flaps are no reason for uncontrolled braking, but the slow flight characteristics ofthe JOIN’T profit immensely.You don't need any special knowledge to have control of the flap system, the use of a Jet-Flapparaglider is the same as a conventional glider.12
