Putting the harnes on
The passenger should put the harness onto their shoulders. Fasten the leg buckles first, and then the chest strap.
Push the leg straps down as far as possible towards the knees, and then tighten them (if the leg straps are too high,
it is difficult to get into the harness after the take-off without using your hands). Check the adjustment of all the
straps.
Pre-flight checks
It is the pilot’s responsibility to assure the safety of their passenger. This means checking the glider, spreader bars and
both pilot and passenger harnesses are in good condition and correctly connected.
With regards to the passenger harness, the pilot should do the following before flight:
• Check all the harness buckles are correctly closed.
•
Check the chest, transverse, leg and shoulder strap adjustments.
•
Ensure the passenger harness is connected to the spreader bars on the loop intended for that purpose, and
that the karabiners are correctly closed.
