NOVA Phantom — Low-B Comfort with Top-Shelf High-B Performance

Choosing the Phantom gets you low-B comfort and top-shelf high-B performance; in exchange you pay two to three times the price of a conventional low B and accept slower climbs on very weak days. It suits experienced pilots stepping down a grade who don't want to give up much performance. Lighter pilots should look at the XS flown near the top of its range: it still climbs well there without feeling overloaded, it is slightly less demanding than a 777 Knight S or Buzz Z5 MS, and it surges less in pitch in turbulence.
