The Woopy-Fly, a sort of paraglider/trike/ultralight hybrid shown on the world stage at AERO Friedrichshafen this April 2010 in Germany, has a wing that folds for storage like a paraglider – because it’s inflatable. Currently, it appears the wing itself is only available from distributors in Switzerland, Russia, and Japan.
