COSY 2 HF
If it does happen, the feeling would be that the wing would not be advancing; you would feel a kind of
instability and a lack of pressure on the brake lines, although the canopy would appear to be correctly
inflated. The correct reacCon would be to release the pressure on the brake lines and push the A lines
forward or rather lean your body to any side WITHOUT PULLING ON THE BRAKE LINES.
Deep stall
The possibility of the COSY 2 HF falling into this configuraCon during normal flight is very unlikely. This could
happen if you are flying at a very low speed, whilst over steering in a number of manoeuvres and in
turbulent condiCons. To provoke a deep stall you have to take the wing to minimum flight speed by
symmetrically pulling the brake lines, when you reach this point, conCnue pulling unCl you reach 100% and
then hold. The glider will first fall behind you and then situate itself above you, rocking slightly, depending
on how the manoeuvre was carried out. When you start to provoke a stall, be posiCve and do not doubt an
instant. Do not release the brake lines when half way through the manoeuvre. This would cause the glider
to surge violently forward with great energy and may result in the wing below the pilot. It is very important
that the pressure on the brake lines is maintained unCl the wing is well established verCcal above.
To regain normal flight condiCons, progressively and symmetrically release the brake lines, leeng the speed
be re-established. When the wing reaches the maximum advanced posiCon ensure that the brakes are fully
released. The wing will now surge forward, this is necessary so that air speed is completely restored over
the wing. Do not over brake at this point because the wing needs to recover speed to quit the stall
configuraCon. If you have to control a possible symmetrical front stall, briefly and symmetrically pull on the
brake lines and let go even when the wing is sCll ahead of you.
Wing tangle
A wing tangle may happen ager an asymmetric collapse, the end of the wing is trapped between the lines
(Cravat). This situaCon could rapidly cause the wing to turn, although it depends on the nature of the
tangle. The correcCon manoeuvres are the same as those applied in the case of an asymmetrical collapse,
control the turn tendency by applying the opposite brake and lean your body against the turn. Then locate
the line that reaches the stabiliser that is trapped between the other lines. This line has a different colour
and belongs to the external lines of the B riser.
Pull on this line unCl it is tense, this should help to undo the wing tangle. If you cannot undo the tangle, fly
to the nearest possible landing spot, control the flying course with your body movements and a li[le
pressure on the opposite brake. Be careful when a[empCng to undo a tangle if you are flying near a
mountainside or near to other paragliders, you may lose control of the flying course and a collision may
occur.
Over handling
Most flying incidents are caused by incorrect acCons of the pilot, which chained one ager another creates
abnormal flying configuraCons (a cascade of incidents). You must remember that over handling the wing
will lead to criCcal levels of funcConing. The COSY 2 HF is designed always to try to recover normal flight by
itself, do not try to over handle it.
Generally speaking, the reacCons of the wing, which follow over handling, are neither due to the input
made or the intensity, but the length of Cme the pilot conCnues to over handle. You have to allow the
profile to re-establish normal flight speed ager any type of handling.
