en: Bei allen getesteten Manövern gutmütiges Verhalten. Bei seitlichen Einklappern klappt das Gerät mit relativ wenig Flächentiefe. Turbulenzbedingte, flächentiefe Einklapper könnten ein anspruchsvolleres Geräteverhalten verursachen. |

Safety class 2 This class of paraglider react mildly to all of the following manoeuvres: frontal collapse, asymmetric collapse or spiral dive.Mildly means that the above manoeuvres result in moderately dynamic reactions from the glider and/or moderate height losses. Pilots who have learned and are able to correctly apply basic recovery training techniques should be able to maintain glider control and minimise height loss in the event of one of the above manoeuvres. Generally, subsequent critical glider reactions requiring immediate and precise pilot input are not to be expected from gliders of this class. The safe use of a glider in this class requires skills learnt in standard basic training. Emergency descent methods may be performed with standard techniques and do not require special skills. As on occasion, all gliders may react more dynamically to a disturbance than expected, additional training such as regular ground handling or SIV training is recommended. |
