As the Stealth KPL 2 is a high performance wing, you should attempt to land into the wind and
avoid going downhill.
Stealth KPL 2 requires that the pilot fly intently during landing.
Keep the wings level, and the airspeed up slightly and fly the glider down until the altitude is 0,5 -
0,8 m (2-3 ft.) from the ground to the speedbar. At this altitude decrease descent rate by pushing
slightly on the control bar. When you feel the glider unresponsive to the bar displacement quickly
ease the bar out all the way before your feet touch the ground. With a good sharp final thrust, the
sudden increase in drag will slow the glider very suddenly and you will land softly.
Do not ease the bar out with extra speed! It leads to an abrupt climb out which requires extra
attention to hold nose up to "parachute" to the ground.
We wish you many happy landings!
