ProFe Banjo

The ProFe Banjo is a family of Czech high-wing, strut-braced, T-tailed gliders and motor gliders designed and produced by ProFe in kit form for amateur construction.

[1][2][3][4] Named for the musical instrument of the same name, the Banjo series of gliders consists of three models, the basic glider model, a powered version and the two seat DuoBanjo.

The nose ribs are expanded polystyrene while the ailerons are made of wood and covered in fabric.

The fuselage is of fibreglass monocoque construction, while its one-piece bubble canopy is made from polycarbonate.
