Speed in straight flight Trim speed more than 30 km/h Speed range using the controls larger than 10 km/h Minimum speed A Increasing / greater than 55 cm Increasing / greater than 60 cm Symmetric control pressure / travel 5. Pitch stability exiting accelerated flight Dive forward angle on exit Dive forward less than 30° Dive forward less than 30° Collapse occurs 6. Pitch stability operating controls during accelerated flight Collapse occurs 7. Roll stability and damping 8. Stability in gentle spirals Tendency to return to straight flight Spontaneous exit Spontaneous exit 9. Behaviour exiting a fully developed spiral dive Initial response of glider (first 180°) Immediate reduction of rate of turn Tendency to return to straight flight Spontaneous exit (g force decreasing, rate of turn decreasing) Spontaneous exit (g force decreasing, rate of turn decreasing) Turn angle to recover normal flight Less than 720°, spontaneous recovery Less than 720°, spontaneous recovery 10. Symmetric front collapse Rocking back less than 45° Max. weight in flight up to 80 kg Symmetric control pressure / travel Max. weight in flight 80 kg to 100 kg Symmetric control pressure / travel Max. weight in flight greater than 100 kg Approximately 30 % chord Entry Rocking back less than 45° Test Report generated automatically by AIR TURQUOISE SA, valid without signature RE | rev 05 | 16.04.2018 // ISO | 71.8.2 // Page 1
