Interesting facts about the Flight Design Exxtacy
✈ Flight Design developed the Exxtacy as a rigid wing hang glider, it uses a cantilever composite structure rather than external bracing for a cleaner airframe.
✈ The wing uses spoilers for roll control, it keeps handling precise while still retaining a familiar hang glider feel in the air.
✈ Inboard flaps give you a wider working speed range, they let you optimise glide when cruising and steepen your approach when you need a tighter landing area.
✈ The Exxtacy targeted high performance cross country flying, it became known for strong glide efficiency compared with flex wings of the same era.
✈ Flight Design offered the wing in more than one size, this helps buyers match wing loading and handling to pilot weight and typical conditions.
✈ A tandem capable version exists, it suits pilots who want to fly with a passenger or support instruction where local rules allow.
✈ The Exxtacy uses extensive composite construction, this can mean excellent stiffness in flight and different inspection priorities compared with aluminium framed wings.
✈ Production has ended, so most buyers focus on airframe condition, spares availability and the quality of the setup and maintenance history when comparing listings.
Model Variants for buyers to consider when purchasing a Flight Design Exxtacy
The Flight Design Exxtacy family includes the Exxtacy 135 (often referenced as 13.5) and the larger Exxtacy 160, plus the Exxtacy Bi (biplace) for tandem use. The 135 typically suits lighter hook in weights and keeps handling more agile, while the 160 increases wing area and supported take off weight which can suit heavier pilots and stronger conditions. The Bi variant matters most if you want passenger capability or instruction focused flying, as it targets tandem loading and the practical demands of two person operations.

FAQs About the Flight Design Exxtacy
Is the Flight Design Exxtacy a powered aircraft?
No, the Flight Design Exxtacy is an unpowered rigid wing hang glider, it relies on foot launch or tow launch methods and uses rising air to stay aloft.
What makes the Exxtacy different from a flex wing hang glider?
The Exxtacy uses a rigid composite wing with a cantilever structure, this improves stiffness and aerodynamic efficiency compared with many fabric sail flex wings.
How does the Flight Design Exxtacy control roll and speed?
It combines weight shift pitch control with spoilers for roll control, plus flaps to help you manage glide and approach profile during thermalling and landing.
What Exxtacy version should I look for, 135, 160, or Bi?
Choose based on your hook in weight and your mission, the 135 and 160 help you match wing loading while the Bi matters if you need tandem capability.
What should I check first when viewing a used Flight Design Exxtacy listing?
Start with overall structural condition and service history, then confirm the wing version, included components and any repairs, and verify that setup and rigging parts are complete and correctly fitted.

Find Insurance for a Flight Design Exxtacy
When you buy a Flight Design Exxtacy, insurance should match how you fly and where you fly, foot launch sites, tow operations and travel plans all affect the risk profile. Ask your broker what they cover for ground handling and transport, as rigid wings can face different exposure during setup and packing. If you plan to fly tandem in an Exxtacy Bi, confirm whether passenger liability applies and what pilot experience they require.
