PRO GUIDE // PACE
9 HOMOLOGATION
The PACE is certified to LTF II 91/09 and EN926-1, EN926-2 in the category B.
The PACE is defined as a lightweight sport aircraft with an empty weight of less than
120kg in the paraglider category. The many homologation tests are the last hurdle in the
development of a skywalk paraglider. The homologation test flights only take place when
the test team is completely happy with the glider development.
We remark that the certification results will differ during flight in thermals or turbulent air.
The homologation informs solely regarding the paraglider performance during extreme-
flight-manoeuvres performed in stable air conditions. These extreme-flight-manoeuvres
during the homologation process should thus not be over-valued.
Remember that certification maneuvers were carried out with a harness in the group GH
with a carabiner distance (middle to middle) of 40-48 cm. If another harness is used, the
glider may display flight characteristics that differ from those in the description.
