To us, a paraglider is more than just a few kilograms of plastic. We
breathe digital life into it. Registration at MyNOVA is its birth certifi-
cate; and the service data for its entire life is collected in our
Quality
Assurance Database
. For the following two reasons our long-run-
ning system is not only practical, it is also vital for continuing quality
assurance:
Firstly, thanks to a user account our clients have unlimited access
to all their important data – for example, the
NOVA Full Service
log,
Trim Tuning data or even a change of owner.
Secondly, we gain a deeper insight into the durability of the material
and lines through the collection of this data. This helps us inform our
clients quickly in case of problems. Also, it helped/helps us to decide
which materials are most suitable for everyday paragliding. It assists
us to keep producing better paragliders.
NOVA approved service centres also have access to the database.
The person responsible for the service can gain information on the
wing before even opening it up. The
Quality Assurance Database
therefore improves the knowledge transfer – in the interest of our
customers.
All the service and
guarantee conditions
are linked to terms
and conditions.

vices are available at:

Particulars and exceptions
Subsequent check intervals are two years unless the checker speci-
fies one year due to the questionable condition of the glider.
We also recommend annual checks if the glider is used in areas where
it is exposed to a lot of stress/adverse conditions: in very sandy or
rocky areas, salty sea air and if the wing has been in contact with
salt water. Anyone who regularly flies aerobatics should submit their
glider for an annual check. In this case, there is an even greater res-
ponsibility on the pilot to regularly check the wing for damage.
Regardless of the above specified deadlines, the paraglider must be
inspected no later than 100 flying hours or 400 launches, whichever
comes first.
The
NOVA Full Service
is confirmed with an official stamp. Failure to
comply invalidates the airworthiness. You can find authorised service
partners on our website:

Gliders used for
commercial purposes
(school gliders,
tandems) must be
checked annually.
