ENHANCED PERFORMANCE LEADING EDGES
Improve your aircraft's climb and cruise speed performance while reducing stall speeds with Raisbecks Enhanced Performance Leading Edges (EPLE). Constructed of lightweight composite material, our Leading Edges replace OEM factory leading edges to provide increased performance and safety by eliminating airflow separation and drag on the wings during takeoff roll. Operators will experience superior handling characteristics and a smoother rotation at takeoff.
