Introduction & General Information
1.1.
Safety First
All forms of aviation have inherent risks that can be hazardous to your physical well-being
or your life. It is always a good idea to get qualified and proper training on the use of any
gear that will get you off the ground and into the air. The GRAZ
hopper
is no exception.
Ultimately it is up to each individual pilot to make their own determinations of safety on
whether or not to fly; selecting the flying conditions and site; choosing gear to fly;
conducting proper maintenance and assembly; observing all applicable local, state and
federal laws; checking the airspace restrictions; and conducting thorough pre and post flight
checks. Given the complexity and variability of the numerous variables involved in each
flight,
the pilot in command assumes ALL RESPONSIBILITY for known and
unknown risks for their and others safety in the use of any flying related gear
,
including the GRAZ
hopper
trike.
