IMPORTANT:
In normal flight, periodically
feel the position of the rescue handle so
that the action of reaching for the rescue
handle is instinctive in an emergency.
WARNING:
During any incident in flight,
always monitor your altitude. If you
have any doubt that you have sufficient
height for recovery, deploy your reserve
without hesitation. “If in doubt, get it
out!”.
NOTE:
After any rescue deployment,
it is essential to have your harness
thoroughly inspected by a qualified
professional to be sure there is no
damage to the rescue connection
points, rescue bridle or any other parts.
secured by their locking mechanisms?
Is the speed bar attached correctly to the glider?
Are all pockets closed properly and any loose items tied down safely?
Is the air chamber intake open and clear?
Have you closed your leg and chest straps? Double check before you take off!
Rescue Deployment
In the event of an emergency, you must quickly evaluate your height and the
seriousness of the incident. A seconds hesitation in deploying the reserve could prove
fatal if there is insufficient height. On the other hand, deploying the rescue when the
glider is recoverable may result in needless injury.
If you decide to deploy the rescue:
1) Look for the rescue handle and grasp it firmly with one hand
2) Pull forwards and upwards on the handle to release the deployment bag from the
rescue container.
3) Look for a clear area, and in a continuous motion, throw (and RELEASE!) The
rescue away from yourself and the glider, preferably into the air stream or against the
direction of spin. After deployment, avoid entanglement and pendulum motions by
promptly pulling in the glider as symmetrically as possible with the B, C, D or brake
lines.
4) On landing take an upright body position and be prepared to do a PLF (Parachute
Landing Fall) to minimize the risk of injury.
