The Australian designed and manufactured XT-912 continues to make
inroads into the European market with Airbornes French distributor
winning the prestigious microlight Tour de France for the second year
running on the Airborne XT-912. Serge and Genevieve Bouchet operate
Veriplane ULM Paris one of the largest microlight schools in France. The
school caters for both weight shift and 3 axis students.
The Tour de France takes it's pilots around the French countryside where
they navigate and race against each other encountering varying weather

designs and says the XT-Streak 3 combination is the best handling weight
shift microlight he has flown.

Australian CASA approved microlights.
Two years ago Airborne achieved a milestone by gaining UKCAA acceptance

type allowed to sell ready to fly into the UK market.
