Connection parts
Check of the webbing and maillons
– are there abrasions, buckling, tears, strong signs of wear obvious?
– Is all the stitching fast and firm?
– Is the accelerator running free and intact?
– Are brake toggle attachments still firmly sewn on?
– Are the maillons corrosion free, are the sleeves of the gates free moving on the thread?
Measure under a load of 5 kg. The determined values are to be compared with the specifi-
cations from the EAPR-Technical data sheet. Allowable variations are to be inferred from the
manufacturer directions. If the webbing or parts thereof are defective, spare parts are to be
ordered from the manufacturer and replace the defective parts with original parts. The deter-
mined values/modification are to be note in the inspection log!
Lines
Test of the line tensile strength:
Line selection: select a middle, lower cascade of the A, B and a C- lines as well as if available a
middle A and B upper cascade, and stress test for tensile strength testing device on their ten-
sile strength. Tension velocity of the tension cylinder: v=30cm/min Tear/tensile strength values:
the determined values/modifications are to be noted in the inspection!
ATTENTION: Each size (line diameter) is to be assigned a fixed value.
In case the lines cannot withstand the indicated load/stress or pass tensile
strength test, all other lines must also be changed. If the checked lines fulfill
the test criteria, only those are replaced by new lines. All replaced lines are
to be marked in the proximity of the maillon (seam) with a black felt marker
pen and noted in the inspection log with the date of the exchange and the
logged of hours of flight time of the glider. During the next test for tensile
strength an original line, neighbouring the replaced line is to be sampled.
The various line diameters are allocated a minimal Sewing length!
Check of the line length and line attachments
Bottom cascade, upper cascades and brake lines for, breaks, abrasions, visual check. First the
A-lines, then B. etc.
– Are all lines adequately sewn and attached to the line attachments?
– Is the sheathing of the lines even are exactly?
– Are all loops, knots, seams in good shape?
– Are there any abrasions present?
