Glider user's manual | LEAF3 Light
Landing
Be certain to always have enough altitude for a safe landing before approaching the chosen Landing Zone ( PTU, PTS, etc...). Never
make aggressive maneuvers close to the ground. Always land into the wind ( upwind ), standing up and ready to run to a stop if
necessary. Make your landing approach with maximum air speed if possible depending on the weather conditions of the moment,
then progressively brake to slow the glider to a final touchdown. Beware not to brake too much, too soon and too rapidly to prevent a
possible stall and hard landing.
In case of a landing in sustained higher wind speeds, you will need to quickly turnaround, face the wing, move forward while braking
down symmetrically. You can equally pull the "C" risers down to deflate the glider and bring it to the ground.
Folding
Fold each side of your wing in an accordion-like shape. Stack-up the leading edge reinforcements on top of one another.
Bring one side of the glider over the other while keeping the leading edge reinforcements flat. Roll the wing on itself, starting from
the leading edge toward the trailing edge. During the entire packing procedure, do not bend the leading edge's reinforcements.
Towing
The LEAF3 Light wing can be towed up. Fly only with certified gear operated by qualified personal and only after taking a towing cli-
nic. The towing force must correspond to the weight of the equipment, and the pulling sequence can only start when the wing is fully
inflated and stable over the pilot's head.
Aerobatics
The LEAF3 Light wing was not designed to enter We highly discourage its use for this type of flying.
Tandem
The LEAF3 Light wing was not designed for tandem flying.
