40、g equipment Emergency parachutes Safety requirements and test methods 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 paraglider ultralight glider with no primary rigid structure, for which take-off and landing are on foot, with the pilot (an
41、d potentially one passenger) carried in a harness (or harnesses) connected to the wing 3.2 harness assembly composed of straps and fabric for supporting the pilot in the seated or semi-recumbent or standing position Note 1 to entry: The harness is attached to the wing via two rings or connectors; it
42、 can also be integral with the wing via risers. 3.3 emergency parachute emergency device intended to slow the descent of a paraglider pilot in the event of an incident in flight, which is deployed by the pilot by an intentional manual action Note 1 to entry: This may be unsteered or steerable. 3.4 c
43、ontrols primary steering and speed controls which are designated as such by the manufacturer 3.5 trimmer lockable pitch adjustment system Note 1 to entry: Action by the pilot is required to return it to the initial position.

45、he angle of attack 3.8 action of the pilot any transfer of weight, action on the controls, the accelerator or on the trimmer 3.9 normal flight flight condition in which the paraglider is fully inflated and is following a trajectory close to straight flight (at a speed close to trim speed) without an
46、y action on the part of the pilot Note 1 to entry: A small number of cells may still be collapsed. 3.10 spiral dive flight condition in which the paraglider is fully inflated and is following a circling, steep, nose down trajectory with pitch angle of more than 70 and the angle of the span relative
