extensive flying experience of at least 75 hours airtime per year
extensive knowledge of the special features of paragliders with reflex profiles
The Falcon is not suitable as a wing for beginner paramotor pilots. On the contrary, pilots
should already have experience with paramotor wings and be familiar with the performance and
safety of gliders with reflex profiles.
The Falcon covers many aspects of powered paragliding and offers various adjustment options
according to the pilot’s wishes. The adjustments require appropriate experience on the part of the
pilot, in order to use the Falcon’s full range of performance and handling.
Description of pilot skills required
Designed for pilots well versed in techniques to recover from abnormal flying conditions, who
fly regularly, “actively”, and who understand the possible implications of flying a paraglider with
reduced passive safety.
Reflex profiles require a correct assessment of operating limits in order to avoid canopy
disturbances safely.
Suitability for training
The Falcon is generally not suitable for use as a training paramotor glider.
Before the first flight
Certified Harnesses
The harness and reserve used must receive a declaration of conformity and be registered by a
type-testing body.
To achieve a satisfactory level of performance with the Falcon, it is essential to give
conscientious thought and consideration to the appropriate harness, motor and propeller. We are
able to give no more than advice on this. The pilot is responsible for the final decision.
Please contact your Gin Gliders dealer or Gin Gliders directly if you have any questions about
using your harness and motor with the Falcon.
WARNING
Your instructor, dealer or a specialist must
test-fly and inspect the paramotor glider
before your first flight. The test-flight must

information label. Any changes or improper
repairs to this paramotor glider shall render
