Launch preparations: difficult

launch characteristics: delayed, delayed climb,needs pronounced guidance, minimal feedback during inflation, little braking required, slows before zenith, control check simple, low takeoff speed

asymmetric collapse: canopy colllapses at high angle to leading edge, high dynamics, total course change >360°, (5), fast course change rate, marked forward pitching 60-75°, (4), high height loss 40-49 m, (3), moderate sink velocity 15-19 m/s, (2), collapse on opposite wingtip with course change <90°, (4), G-Force < 2,5 G, (1)

Frontal collapse: canopy collapses with high total collapse aera, marked pitch backwards 45-60°, marked pitch forwards 45-60°, moderate dynamics, no course change, (1), variable recovery behaviour, at times with stable closed frontal collapse, at times with automatic recovery, (4), usually symmetric recovery, simple pilot action required, (4), immediate return to normal airspeed, high height loss 40-49 m, (3), low sink velocity 10-14 m/s, (1)

Spiral dives: moderate sink velocity increase, Moderate G-Force 3,5- 4.0 G, (2), Sink velocity after 720° <18 m/s, (3), High maximum sink velocity < 22 m/s, (3), sink velocity increase < 3 m/s on brake release, (1), Course change 360-540° after spiral exit, (3), high height loss during recovery 60-100 m, (3)

B-Stall: normal force required, moderate pitch backwards 15-30°, marked pitch forwards 30-45°, unstable sink phase, high deformation tendency, immediate return to normal airspeed, 6-8 m/s, height loss on recovery < 20 m

big ears: simple initiation, unsteady flight phase, wingtips flatter a little, immediate automatic recovery, Vsink unaccelerated 2,5-3 m/s, Vsink accelerated 3-3,5 m/s, Vunaccelerated 3-5 km/h less than trimspeed, Vaccelerated 5-8 km/h faster than trimspeed
