3.1- Preflight checks
For maximum safety, use a valid and complete preflight inspection method
and repeat the same mental sequences on every flight.
Check that:
- The reserve parachute handle is fastened in its correct position, and
the pins are firmly inserted
- The pockets and zips are closed
- All the buckles are closed
- The paraglider is correctly attached to the harness on the main snap-
hooks, which must be fully tightened by means of the closing mechanism
- The speed-bar is attached correctly to the glider
After careful assessment that the weather conditions are favourable for
flying, put on the harness by simply fastening the "GET-UP" strap, so hook
the loops of the leg straps on the snap-hooks on both the right and left
sides. This simple operation must be performed and checked carefully for
safe flight.
