Certification - Advance acoustic IOTA 23 User Manual

Certification

The I OTA has EN and LTF C certification . The test reports can be
downloaded from www .advance .ch .
Certification ratings can only provide limited information about a para-
glider's flying behaviour in thermally active and turbulent air . The certi-
fication grading is based primarily on provoked extreme flight manoeu-
vres in calm air .
During the development of an ADVANCE paraglider, the emphasis is
first and foremost on flying behaviour and handling, and not exclusive-
ly on the certification test . The result is a well-rounded product with the
familiar ADVANCE handling . Nevertheless, the certification rating oc-
cupies a significant proportion of the specifications that have to be met .
