Launch preparations: average

launch characteristics: balanced, climbs constantly, no guidance necessary, good feedback during inflation, little braking required, slows before zenith, control check simple, low takeoff speed

asymmetric collapse: canopy colllapses at high angle to leading edge, high dynamics, total course change 90-180°, (1), very fast course change rate, high forward pitching 75-90°, (5), moderate height loss 30-39 m, (2), low sink velocity 10-14 m/s, (1), with tendency to cravat, (4), G-Force < 2,5 G, (1)

Frontal collapse: canopy collapses with high total collapse aera, moderate pitch backwards 30-45°, low pitch forwards <30°, moderate dynamics, no course change, (1), variable recovery behaviour, at times immediate, at times delayed, automatic recovery, (3), usually symmetric recovery, simple pilot action required, (4), horseshoe, wingtips at front, immediate return to normal airspeed, moderate height loss 30-39 m, (2), low sink velocity 10-14 m/s, (1)

Spiral dives: moderate sink velocity increase, Moderate G-Force 3,5- 4.0 G, (2), Sink velocity after 720° <18 m/s, (3), High maximum sink velocity < 22 m/s, (3), sink velocity increase < 6 m/s on brake release, (2), Course change 360-540° after spiral exit, (3), high height loss during recovery 60-100 m, (3)

B-Stall: normal force required, low pitch backwards <15°, moderate pitch forwards 15-30°, stable sink phase, no tendency to deform, immediate return to normal airspeed, 6-8 m/s, height loss on recovery 20-40 m

big ears: simple initiation, stable flight phase, immediate automatic recovery, Vsink unaccelerated 2,5-3 m/s, Vsink accelerated 3,5-4 m/s, Vunaccelerated 0-3 km/h less than trimspeed, Vaccelerated 3-5 km/h faster than trimspeed

Steering behaviour: agile, 80 cm brake travel range, very noticable brake pressure increasse, normal stall point, easily identifiable
