ATTENTION: Fullstalls and negative turns/spins as a descent method
are dangerous, because a wrong exit, regardless of glider type, can
have fatal consequences.
Emergency Piloting
In any situation where normal steering is not possible, the Papillon P42 can easily be steered and
landed with the back risers. Turns can be flown with weightshift, however be careful that the glider
doesn`t lock into a spiral.
Transport and storage
When transporting the glider don’t expose it to any liquids. It has to be packed completely dry.
Always store the P42 away from UV radiation. Furthermore never store the wing together with acids
or similar goods. A dry storage is of utmost importance!
ATTENTION: After a longer storage period the glider needs to be
checked.
Repairs
Basically only authorized service centers may execute repairs on paragliders. Small damages like
tears or small holes up to a size of 2 x 2 cm, where a repair without special equipment is possible,
the pilot may do by himself. The included self-sticky tape from the repair-kit is to be used for that.
Tears or holes need to be fixed from both sides. Please take care that the repair tape sticks out at
least 2cm beyond the damaged area on all sides. The self-sticky tape can be cut into the right form.
Rounding off the corners prevents it from becoming detached.
