The Test Release of Safety Equipment on the Paraglider Harness Husky from the company
Finsterwalder demonstated an unacceptably high strength requirement for activation. This
is caused by the velcro bands next to the release splint.
In agreement with the company Finsterwalder the DHV has decided on the following safety
measures:
- On all paraglider harnesses of the design "Husky" the strength required to
release is to be checked.
- Those release grips that fail the check must be reworked.
The airworthiness instruction comes into force when published in the Nachrichten fuer
Gleitsegel- und Hanggleiterfuehrer (NfGH). The safty measures must be carried out before
the next use of the equipment.
The check and, when necessary, exchange will be carried out by the company
