Southdown Sailwings Puma

A Puma is a combination of the South¬down Sailwings Lightning DS wing and a Southdown Sailwings approved two seat trike unit. The first such combination used an Ultra Sports trike unit and is known simply as the Puma. Later combinations carry a suffix to show the trike unit manufacturer, viz: Puma MS (Mainair Tri Flyer Two Seater trike unit) and Puma SS (Southdown Sailwings’ own trike unit).

A Puma Sprint is a combination of the Southdown Sailwings Sprint wing and a Southdown Sailwings approved two seat trike unit. The first such combination used Southdown Sailwings’ own trike unit and is known simply as the Puma Sprint. Later combinations carry a suffix to show the trike unit manufacturer. One such combination uses the Mainair Tri Flyer Two Seater trike unit and is called the Puma Sprint Ms.

The Sea Puma is a combination of the modified Southdown Sailwings Lightning DS wing and a modified version of Southdown Sailwings’ own two seater trike unit.

Thus there is no such thing as a single seat Puma.
