The La Mouette Atlas is a French high-wing, single-place, hang glider, designed and produced by La Mouette of Fontaine-lès-Dijon.[1] Design and developmentThe Atlas was initially conceived as a competition glider, and, in that role it achieved many competitive wins. Due to its ease of handling it was also used as a flight training aircraft. As its performance was surpassed by the newer double surface and later "topless" gliders it became no longer competitive, but retained its role as a training machine. Over 8000 have been built, making it one of the most produced hang gliders ever.[1][2] The aircraft is made from aluminum tubing, with the single-surface wing covered in Dacron sailcloth. All models have a {{convert|9.3|m|ft|1|abbr=on}} span wing, which is cable braced from a single kingpost. The nose angle is 120°. All models are certified as DHV Class 2.[1][2] Operational historyWhen the Atlas was competitive it won national championships in most European countries. It also won championships in Argentina, Brazil and Japan, as well as the European championships and world team championships.[2] Variants
