When the steering toggles (or “brakes”, as they are
called) are fully retracted the canopy
at its angle of attack producing maximum
maximum sink rate and maximum gliding distance. We don’t
really want to land canopy conditions, but in
to maximum Performance we must understand and
be able to use the energy of the canopy differently at
different times flight.
and Flying
The range of control goes from full glide to STALL.
The greatest sink rate will occur at full glide. The most
hazardous flying is that done the STALL. A Stall is
when the steering lines are pulled far enough to
incease the angle of attack beyond the at
the smooth fiow of air is interrupted and the canopy deflates.
.
Stall recovery is accomplished by SLOWLY releasing the
steering lines to allow the canopy
to
return to normal flying
attitude. If recovery is not allowed, and the steering lines
are kept extended, the canopy and will begin a new
descent without benefit of lift.
The middle of the road between full-glide Performance and
the is a more forgiving range as far as the canopy
is concerned. The canopy will not glide as far at moderate
