Flight manual DG-800S
3.1
Introduction
Section 3 provides a checklist and amplification for coping with
emergencies that may occur. Emergency situations can be minimized by
proper pre-flight inspections and maintenance.
3.2
Canopy jettison
To bail out open the red canopy emergency release handle. The white
canopy opening handle will be opened automatically. A hook at the rear
canopy lock will be rotated underneath the fuselage part of the canopy
frame. Because of the hook the canopy will rotate about this point to leave
the fuselage in a fast and safe way. The canopy will be opened by a spring
and blown away by the oncoming air. If necessary, you have to push the
canopy upwards with both hands on the Plexiglas.
3.3
Bailing out
First jettison the canopy, then unlock the safety harness and bail out. The
low walls of the cockpit allow for a quick push-off exit.
3.4
Stall recovery
Easing the stick forward and picking up a dropping wing with sufficient
opposite rudder the glider can be recovered from the stall.
To recognise and prevent the stall, please refer to sect. 4.5.2.
3.5
Spin Recovery
Apply full opposite rudder against direction of the spin.
Then ease stick forward until the rotation ceases, at aft C.G. positions at
which the glider spins with the nose up, it is necessary to apply full stick
forward.
Centralise the controls and carefully pull out of the dive.
The ailerons should be kept neutral during recovery.
