ASTRAL 6
In Germany, Swing gliders must be inspected as follows (check the situation in your
country):
A) For tandem gliders (if used commercially) and gliders used by schools an
inspection (the same as the 2-yearly check) must be carried out every 12 months
from the purchase date.
B) Gliders for personal use and tandem gliders (not used commercially) must be
inspected every 2 years from the purchase date.
C) The paraglider must be inspected after 150 hours of use (including ground
handling) if this occurs prior to the periods in A) and B) above.
Ground handling time must be at least doubled when working out the total hours of use
because of the increased wear and tear on the glider.
If Swing is to accept guaranty and warranty claims, all inspections must be carried out
by SWING, or an inspection agent authorised by SWING. The documentation and the
result of the inspection must be clearly identifiable by the inspector (date and place /
name of inspector) and be entered near the glider information/certification sticker.
Pilots in Germany have been able to carry out the inspection themselves since
01.07.2001 provided that they fulfil all requirements. However, in this event, SWING's
liability and warranty lapse. There are more details on these inspections in a separate
booklet (Swing paragliders inspection instructions)
