Owner`s Manual
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of an Avian Java. The Java is the "state of the art"
high performance king post hang glider. We hope that you will experience many
hours of safe and enjoyable flying on your Java.
This manual is designed to help you get the most out of your Java:
Please read this manual completely before flying, check all your battens against the
batten profile (adjusting them if necessary) and do a thorough pre-flight check.
In your pre-flight include checking the operation of the VB. This is especially
important if instruments are attached to the right hand (VB.) upright.
If you are uncertain, or have any problems with your glider,
DO NOT FLY
. We
have a section on trouble shooting in this manual that features some of the more
common problems that pilots have encountered, and our recommended solutions. If
you are still not sure contact your local dealer or the Avian factory. Both will be
pleased to help you. Make sure your first flight on your new glider is in perfect
conditions from a site that you are familiar with.
PLEASE NOTE
Avian Ltd. do not have commercial product liability insurance.
Avian hang gliders are built using materials and fittings to the industry standard or
better. Avian hang gliders are subject to Avian quality control and testing prior to
delivery to the customer.
Once possession of the glider passes to the customer, its maintenance and condition
becomes the responsibility of the owner or pilot. Any concerns or queries about the
glider's subsequent air worthiness MUST be referred back to the local dealer or the
Avian factory.
Hang gliders like most aircraft must be:
·
stored correctly,
·
treated with respect,
·
checked before take off and after heavy landings,
·
regularly maintained and
·
flown in suitable conditions within their flight envelopes .
Failure to do any of these courts disaster.
Look after your aircraft!!
