9.3. Certification
The OMEGA ULS has EN/LTF D certification. The test reports can be downloaded from www.advance.swiss.
Certification ratings can only provide limited information about a paraglider's flying behaviour in thermally active
and turbulent air. The certification grading is based primarily on induced extreme flight manoeuvres in calm air.
During the development of an ADVANCE paraglider, the emphasis is first and foremost on flying behaviour and
handling, and not exclusively on the certification test. The result is a well-rounded product with the familiar
ADVANCE handling. Nevertheless, the certification rating occupies a significant proportion of the specifications that
have to be met.
