TRANSALP 2 - User manual

ENG

2.2.4 - Seat height adjustment

This adjustment varies the angle between the legs and the back (seat 
depth), distributing the loads between the seat and the lumbar area, 
thereby providing the pilot with greater comfort.

3 - FLYING WITH TRANSALP 2

3.1- Preflight checks

For maximum safety, use a valid and complete preflight inspection method 
and repeat the same mental sequences on every flight.

Check that:

 

- The reserve parachute handle is fastened in its correct position, 

and the pins are firmly inserted

 

- The pockets and zips are closed

 

- All the buckles are closed

 

- The paraglider is correctly attached to the harness on the main 

snap-hooks, which must be securely fastened by means of the closing 
mechanism

 

- The speed-bar is attached correctly to the glider 

After careful assessment that the weather conditions are favourable for 

flying, put on the harness by simply fastening the "GET-UP" strap, so hook 

the loops of the leg straps on the snap-hooks on both the right and left 
sides. This simple operation must be performed and checked carefully for 

safe flight.
