means of the orange stabilo line . Opening a cravat can also be speeded
up by pumping . To do this the relevant brake should be pulled down to
up to 75 % brake travel within two seconds (no longer), then immediately
released .
Symmetrical leading edge collapse (Frontstall)
Following a spontaneous or deliberately provoked (using all A risers)
front collapse airflow breaks away from the wing, which pitches back .
Pilot and passenger will swing back underneath after a short delay . Wait,
without pulling the brakes, until the wing is again overhead and flying
forward . After a large front collapse reopening can be delayed . This
should not be forced (helped) by excessive brake activity, which could
raise the risk of a complete stall .
Caution:
After a very impulsively provoked front collapse in ac-
celerated configuration (for example during SIV tandem training)
it can happen that the front of the canopy does not open by itself .
Help the wing to open with a brief brake impulse by pulling the
brakes to 75 % within one second, immediately and completely
release them, then be prepared to control the forward surge .
Caution:
To simulate a front collapse all A-risers must be taken
hold of and pulled down .
