The Ozone Vulcan is a French single-place paraglider that was designed by hang gliding and paragliding world champion pilot Robbie Whittall and produced by Ozone Gliders of Le Bar-sur-Loup. It is no longer in production.^[1]

Design and development

The Vulcan was designed as an intermediate sports glider and replaced the Ozone Octane in the product line. The Vulcan models are each designated according to their relative size.^[1][2]

Operational history
