Trims 

Trims fulfil a similar function as speed only with a difference that you can fly with 
loose trims under    calm conditions for the whole time of flying, which is more 
comfortable  than  the  long  standing  in  the  speed.  KOMAKA  is  equipped  with 
the speed  system  and  trims  as  well.  This  combination  will  allow  you  to  take 
advantage  of  the  maximal  speed  of  the  glider  under  calm  conditions, 
for example  at  morning  and  evening  flights.  The  trims  can  be  loose  partly 
of fully. Loose the trims symmetrically on both sides. In case of thermic weather 
or any turbulence, we recommend using only the speed. When you let it loose, 
you  can  quickly  release  the  canopy  into  a  normal  flight  position  if  it  is  needed. 
In case  of  using  the  trims,  their  pulling  to  a  normal  flight  mode  is  more 
challenging  and  therefore  it  is  not  suitable  to  use  the  trims  under  unstable 
conditions.

 

 
 
FLIGHT RECOMMENDATIONS 
 

This brochure is only informative. It is by no means a textbook of flying. All the 
described  advices,  simulations  and  manoeuvres  should  be  professionally 
explained by your PG school instructor. 

 
5.1 

Pre-flight check 

Check your equipment carefully before take-off. A careful pre-flight check is 
ordered for all flight equipments and at the same time is a base for a safe flight. 
If the place and conditions are suitable for flying, take the glider out of the cover, 
unpack it completely, release and untwist the ropes and check its conditions: 
 
what 

 

 

to check 

-   supporting straps 

burning from breaks 

 

integrity of the speed system and operating pulleys  

 

 

minify carbines, their locking 

 

 

flipped over loose ends 

 

ropes 

damages or twists 

 

endurance and security of the twines on the breaks  

 

ropes near the supporting straps 

 

canopy 

canopy's coating 

 

 

supporting beckets 

 

 

profiles 

 
At the same time, you should carefully check all the joints, straps, carbines etc. 
Joining the canopy's and the seat's straps should be done with a special safety 
endurance carbine.
