1.1.3 Back straps (B) (figure 1)
Adjust the inclination of the pilot’s back.
An overly reclined position can make flight uncomfortable (reduced field of vision) and make getting into position ready for landing difficult.
If too tight, it will be difficult to get into the harness after take-off.
According to the weight carried in the main pocket and/or in the ballast container, this setting may need adjustment in the air.
2) Reserve parachute (handle types, container connections, orientation of the reserve parachute in the pocket).
2.1 Front container (installation and extraction)
Please refer to the container’s manual supplied by the manufacturer.
3) Pre-flight Check
3.1 Reserve parachute
Before each take off:
Check that the flaps and needles are correctly in place.
Check that the handle is correctly fixed in its slot, or correctly attached to its Velcro.
3.2 Settings
In theory, your harness is correctly adjusted, but … maybe you let a friend try it??!!
