5.4 Spin

A spin occurs when a riser is fully extended or when during a slow flight brakes
on one side are engaged too strongly. The result is that the turning axis moves
to the center point of the canopy, thus putting the glider in a negative turning
radius. Releasing the brakes on the inner side of the turning radius corrects
the situation.
Always be prepared for reserve deployment if needed.

5.5 Brake Failure

If a brake handle is damaged or knotted, the paraglider can still be steered
properly. You need to pull on the D-riser on the failure side of the glider, and
the situation is regulated. Caution is advised because the brake pressure and
brake travel on the D-riser will differ from that of the normal brake line.

5.6 Motorised Flight

Your Firebird-Glider is well-suited for motorised flight. However the pilot must
be advised that only licenced pilots are permitted to take motorised flights. It is
important to adhere to all DULV and specific flight regulations.

5.7 Aerobatics

Your Firebird-Glider is not designed for aerobatic manoeuvre, and they are not
permitted. We strongly discourage the use of this glider for such flying. Firebird
undertakes no liability for the safety of the pilots who participate in aerobatic
flying.
