The SPYL replaces the Gelinotte's wing, which is equipped with leading edge slots, with a new wing equipped with vortex generators instead. The new wing makes this model 20 kg (44 lb) lighter and 15%-20% faster than the Gelinotte. SPYL wings can be retrofitted to the Gelinotte.[source]G1 Aviation G1 · Variants; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Agricultural aircraft version with the same wing as the SPYL, employing vortex generators in place of leading edge slots.
