FULLSTALL
A full stall can be performed with the FLARE MOUSTACHE by pulling the
brakes below ‘minimum speed’ position. It is very important to initiate the
full stall in a rather slow manner to avoid having the wing fall too far behind
the pilot.
In case the FLARE MOUSTACHE is far behind the pilot, DO NOT release the
brakes immediately, keep them below the ‘minimum speed’ position un-
til the wing is above or in front of you. This will prevent the wing from going
into a fast surge forward.
DUE TO THE REFLEX CONSTRUCTION OF THE FLARE MOUSTACHE,
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO STOP A SURGE FORWARD WITH A
QUICK AND DEEP PULL ON THE BRAKE HANDLES, RATHER THAN
A GENTLE PULL. BY TRYING TO STOP WITH A GENTLE PULL, YOU
MOST LIKELY EVEN ACCELERATE THE SURGE AND A FRONTAL
COLLAPSE IS INEVITABLE.
