Hi All,

I'm currently in the process of getting d-bagging approved within Australia. This is mainly so we can d-bag from helicopters at air shows. This is all so new to our federation they didn't even know what a d-bag was until a few weeks ago.

If anybody has any information that may be relevant to this that I can show my federation I would really appreciate it.

The kind of thing they are after is d-bagging operation guidelines, helicopter drop guidelines, d-bag packing methods and alike.

I really appreciate any help anybody can provide!!!

Thanks

Hi

Does anyone know if there is a Rogallo type tandem reserve on the open market?

(Question for Pal Taket) I was told that you were seen to throw a Rogallo at Olu Deniz last June while doing Infinite Tumble on a Tandem with a friend of a friend of mine. Can you tell me please if this correct and if so, where can i buy one?
I have been searching for a while now and can find no information at all on Rogallo Tandem reserves.

If anyone else can enlighten me I would be most grateful.

Thanks for reading this message

hey guys,
i got the latest "dhv-news" where i found this:

"Suspension of Certification – Competition Class Paragliders
Due to recent incidents at the 12th FAI Paragliding World Championship in Piedrahita, Spain
the CIVL Bureau has temporarily suspended the certification of Competition Class
Paragliders with immediate effect.
This suspension means that paragliders classified as Competition Class under Rule 12.1.1.2
of Section 7B of the FAI Sporting Code are not permitted to fly in FAI Category 1
championships for the period of the suspension.

What do you think is the best glider load (kg/m2) for acro manoeuvres (including rhythmic and infinity) with the thriller? Which sice do you think is the best for a total weight of 110 kg ?

we are looking for tendam pilot who is interested to work withus here in pokhara nepal.please write to us at uzzawal_baruwal@yahoo.com .
