We recommend that your first flight on your new glider be on a gentle slope in calm conditions before making any further higher flights, just to check the glider completely and for you to get used to flying it. You should use the same class of harness, and restrict the width of the chest strap, according to the glider’s certification as advised by the certification body. |
