Thanks to Air Vergiate we were invited to exhibit our first Rogallo hang glider (1971) together with the latest Laminar model at the prestigious fair "Salone Internazionale del Libro" in Turin (Italy)
The President of Air Vergiate Carlo Castiglioni meets the first European hang glider pilot Alfio Caronti, the founder of Icaro 2000.

Strange coincidence: 35 years ago Alfio was the hang glider teacher of Carlo.

We are proud to announce that 3 Icaro 2000 hang gliders are exposed at the new historical aircraft museum at the Italian airport Malpensa (Milan)
