Certification

The OMEGA ULS has EN/LTF D certification. The test reports can be downloaded from www.advance.swiss.

Certification ratings can only provide limited information about a paraglider’s flying behaviour in thermally active and turbulent air. The certification grading is based primarily on induced extreme flight manoeuvres in calm air.

During the development of an ADVANCE paraglider, the emphasis is first and foremost on flying behaviour and handling, and not exclusively on the certification test. The result is a well-rounded product with the familiar ADVANCE handling. Nevertheless, the certification rating occupies a significant proportion of the specifications that have to be met.

Folding liines

Special folding lines were fitted for the OMEGA ULS certification. Without these lines side and front collapses cannot be simulated in accordance with the EN-D guidelines. Folding lines create an additional, forward A-line level.

Light sport aircraft

The OMEGA ULS belongs to the “Light sport aircraft” category with an empty weight of less than 120 kg.
