The Independence Raptor is a German single-place, paraglider that was designed by Michaël Nesler and produced by Independence Paragliding of Eisenberg, Thuringia. It is now out of production.[1]
The aircraft is not related to the Skif Raptor.[1]
The Raptor was designed as a competition glider, with an unusually low price as a method of assisting completion pilots. The models are each named for their relative size.[1]
Company test pilot Christian Amon was also involved in the development as well as flight testing of the Raptor.[1]
