14. IN CLOSING - A FEW WORDS ON YOUR SAFETY
-
Flying an ultralight is an active air sport with associated risks. Your safety can be greatly
enhanced by following a few simple rules:
-
Your wing is delivered to you ready to fly. Do not make any adjustments, which are not
described in this manual.
-
Be sure the wing is properly adapted for your trike.
-
If you are in doubt about any aspect of your trike or wing you should consult your dealer
or Aeros for advice.
-
Remember the Profi TL was designed for experienced pilots. Fly a wing suited to your
level of ability. A new risk may arise when you first fly a new type of the wing.
The reactions of your new wing may well differ from those of the wing you where used
-
to. In order to keep this risk low, we recommend that you gradually become familiar with
your new wing.
Before every take-off always do both an assembly check and a pre-flight check.
-
Do not take off if the sail is wet, especially the leading edge, as the stall speed will
-
increase significantly.
Always fly with a dry sail!
-
Take special care to avoid ice covering the glider, particularly the leading edge in
-
wintertime.
A wet wing must be dried before storing. Do not leave your glider wet for more than one
-
day, because corrosion may result.
Never fly alone.
-
-
Don't push your luck. It is your responsibility to know the limits of your wing and the
limits of your own experience. Remember, that ultimately your safety is your
responsibility.
Fly only in places, which are suitable for flying.
-
-
With proper care and maintenance, your wing will retain a high level of airworthiness for
many years.
Have fun. Fly safely.
