If your flight scenario during that phase has not met
the needed conditions (you hear no melody) then
reduce your vertical speed by flying half brakes
until you hear the melodic sound.
Only after the melodic sound the WSC switches to
Canopy Status, allowing you to perform your usual
canopy flight without restrictions. If you don’t hear
the melodic sound: The risk of a two-canopy-out
scenario is increased dramatically. :
Two canopies out can easily hurt or kill you and / or
others. After opening of your main be prepared to hear
the sound of your Audio.
In case you don’t, then fly at half breaks until you hear
it. If you still do not hear it, then avoid high vertical
speed below 1500 feet**.
Do not fly aggressive but smooth below 1500 feet**. Do
not do sharp 90‘s or more below 1500 feet**.
Fly and land without rapid steering maneuvers.
**If you have programmed a user selectable activation
altitude (see 4.4.2) then you have to increase the 1500
feet by the programmed distance. Land safely.
It is rare but possible for a WSC to switch over
to the Canopy Status before your exit. That hap-
pens when the aircraft’s flight scenario simulates
the switch over criteria from Wing Suit Status to
Canopy Status.
Then the difference to the „normal“ situation is,
that your WSC functions as a usual Expert or Speed
CYPRES (depending on your choice) throughout
only this one jump.
Have you heard about
Sky Surfing?
Jumps with a Surf Board create similar physical
conditions as jumps with a Wing Suit. The WSC
can also handle the Sky Surf discipline.
