Launch preparations: easy

launch characteristics: balanced, climbs constantly, no guidance necessary, good feedback during inflation, moderate braking required, slows before zenith, control check simple, low takeoff speed

asymmetric collapse: canopy colllapses at high angle to leading edge, moderate dynamics, total course change 180-270°, (3), moderate course change rate, moderate forward pitching 45-60°, (2), moderate height loss 30-39 m, (2), low sink velocity 10-14 m/s, (1), G-Force < 2,5 G, (1)

Frontal collapse: canopy collapses with low total collapse area, moderate pitch backwards 30-45°, low pitch forwards <30°, low dynamics, no course change, (1), recovery usually immediate, symmetric recovery, immediate return to normal airspeed, moderate height loss 30-39 m, (2), very low sink velocity <10 m/s, (1)

Spiral dives: moderate sink velocity increase, Moderate G-Force 3,5- 4.0 G, (2), Sink velocity after 720° <14 m/s, (1), Moderate maximum sink velocity < 18 m/s, (2), sink velocity increase < 3 m/s on brake release, (1), Course change 90-180° after spiral exit, (1), moderate height loss during recovery 30-60 m, (2)

B-Stall: high force required, high pitch backwards 45-60°, moderate pitch forwards 15-30°, stable sink phase, low deformation tendency, immediate return to normal airspeed, 6-8 m/s, height loss on recovery 20-40 m

big ears: simple initiation, stable flight phase, immediate automatic recovery, Vsink unaccelerated < 2,5 m/s, Vsink accelerated 3-3,5 m/s, Vunaccelerated 3-5 km/h less than trimspeed, Vaccelerated 0-3 km/h faster than trimspeed

Steering behaviour: balanced, 75 cm brake travel range, very noticable brake pressure increasse, normal stall point, easily identifiable
