Like the LIGHTNESS 3, only better: the successor of the pod harness classic offers even more comfort, easier handling and a sportier look. The fourth generation of the all-round pod harness remains the perfect companion for long and relaxed cross-country flights. First deliveries are expected at the beginning of June 2024.
The seat shell of the LIGHTNESS 4 has been completely redesigned and adapted to real body shapes using 3D body scans. The centre of gravity and therefore the position of the body has been moved slightly forwards to give even better support for the back. In addition, the comfort foam now rests on the back shell, which further increases comfort in the back area through a "cushion effect" ensuring fatigue-free flying.
The Closure Remember System (CRS) has been revised and optimised for easier handling. The small number of steps required to close the speedbag minimise the risk of forgetting to close the main strap before take-off. In addition, the buckles are now anodised red, making them even more visible for pre-take-off checks.
The LIGHTNESS 4 is supplied with a LIGHTPACK DLS as standard. The two products are perfectly matched and form a compact and very comfortable overall system. With a weight from 620 g, ergonomically shaped shoulder straps and a padded back section, the LIGHTPACK DLS combines low weight with maximum comfort.
The cockpit has been completely redesigned and is now even easier to use. For take-off, the press of a button ensures that the contents do not fall out. An additional magnetic catch makes the cockpit easy to open and close in flight. The cockpit panel offers sufficient space and security for your electronics. This new concept does not require volume foam and can be folded up small when packing. The LIGHTNESS 4 is also supplied with a windshield and hook knife.

When choosing your ideal harness size, consider your body weight as well as your height. You can customise your LIGHTNESS 4 by combining the different seat shell sizes with the available pod sizes. If you are in the margins of one size, we recommend to test both sizes and seek advice from your dealer.
