has selected the best possible combination of materials with regard to resilience, per-
formance and longevity. We are aware that the durability of the glider is a deciding
factor in the pilot’s satisfaction

9 HOMOLOGATION
The MESCAL6 is certified to LTF 09 and EN926-1, EN926-2 in the category A.
The MESCAL6 is defined as a lightweight sport aircraft with an empty weight of less
than 120 kg in the paraglider category. The many homologation tests are the last hur-
dle in the development of a skywalk paraglider. The homologation test flights only
take place when the test team is completely happy with the glider development.
We remark that the certification results will differ during flight in thermals or turbu-
lent air. The homologation informs solely regarding the paraglider performance during
extreme-flight-manoeuvres performed in stable air conditions. These extreme-flight-
manoeuvres during the homologation process should thus not be over-valued.
Remember that certification maneuvers were carried out with a harness in the group
GH with a carabiner distance (middle to middle) of 42-46 cm. If another harness is
used, the glider may display flight characteristics that differ from those in the de-
scription
