11.2 Frontal collapse
11.3 Full stall
11.4 Deep stall
JAZZ comes out of symmetrical front collaps by itself. But
It could be fast recovered, if you apply the brake down to
15 to 20cm.
If your wing collapses in accelerated flight, immediately
release the accelerator and manage the collapse using the
same methods described above.
Full stall can occur when you fully pull the both brakes. To
recover to the normal flight you must release both brakes.
After this usually comes a front dive with a possible front
deflation. An asymmetric recovery (one control released
faster than the other) from a full-stall can cause a big dy-
namic collapse. The full-stall is a hazardous manoeuvre and
should be only done under the right safety preparations.
It is possible for gliders to enter a state of deep stall. This
can be caused by several situations including; a very slow re-
lease from a B-line stall; flying the glider when wet; or after
a front/symmetric deflation.
When you meet this situation you should fully raise up the
both brakes. and push the A-risers forwards or speed bar to
regain normal flight.
11 Deflations
11.1 Asymmetric collapse
Turbulence may cause a portion of the wing suddenly to col-
lapse. Asymmetric collapses should be controlled by weight
shifting away from the collapse and applying enough brake
to control your direction. And you should use the brake to
re-inflate the glider.
