Safety
The rules are written so a pilot can stop a launch without waiting for a separate permission.
Flight order
Flight rules
A flight is made in favourable weather, inside the agreed boundaries and altitudes, and only when no airspace restriction is in force.
- Follow aviation rules and ATC requirements
- Do not fly while an airspace restriction is in force
- Use the designated launches and landings, or a safe zone agreed in advance
- Temporary restrictions are passed on to pilots
Pre-flight preparation
For training and the internal standard, the site and the radio are checked before launch, not only the wing.
- A clear launch and landing
- Assessment of obstacles and turbulence
- An alternate landing available
- Radio contact with the instructor
- The final pre-flight check
Weather limits
Flights are made only in favourable weather. Unfavourable weather is a reason not to launch.
- A temporary restriction is told to pilots before they travel
Abnormal procedures
Fly the wing and choose a landing area first. Call the ground once the path is under control.
- Keep speed and a heading away from terrain
- Reserve parachute by training, not in the last metre
- After landing, make yourself visible to observers
Emergency services
If life is at risk, call the state service first.

Incident notice
The Federation accepts a site incident notice so it can close a zone or warn other pilots. Medical detail and identity documents do not belong in that notice.
- Site, date, and time
- What happened, without personal data
- Whether the zone status should change
