Our firm has been set up in Saintonge province for many years. In the old Saintonge dialect "BALERIT" means hawk, or falcon called crécerelle, a small bird of prey whose flight is so particular. It can have long slow gliding flights, poise in the air and fly very swiftly. It can also move about very gracefully... so can the HM-1000 BALERIT. |
And just like a bird, the HM-1000 BALERIT is not liable to stalling. |
You will fly it naturally and instintively. |
The HM-1000 BALERIT is extremly manageable and has got a great inhérent stability in turbulence. |
