A preflight check is essential before lifting the wing above the trike. To do so, position the
wing horizontally once coupled with the trike.
Check the camber of the two leading edges and correct positioning of the nose bonnet.
•
Check the thimbles and nicopress of the front lower longitudinal cables and the correct fastening
•
of the tensioning device and its pushpin.
Slide your hand along the leading edges to check for possible defects.
•
Check the crossbar/leading edges connection by unzipping the lower surface access. Check the
•
right positioning of the lateral cables, the condition of these cables and their nicopress and the sail
not being snagged on a metallic part.
Check the fastening of the sail at the wing tips as well as the correct positioning of the two
•
pivoting sleeves (the two screws should be positioned directly in line with keel).
Check the position of the battens and their fastening strings, check the condition of the luff lines
•
and their fastening to the sail.
Make sure no upper cable is looped around the king post and luff lines are correctly positioned
•
into the groove of the fixing pulley.
Check the thimbles and nicopress of the rear lower cables at the keel tip.
•
Check the tensioning of the crossbar cables, the correct positioning of the pushpin and its safety,
•
as well as the condition, and fastening of the strap holding the keel pocket.
Slide your hand along all the lower cables to detect signs of wear.
•
Check the connection of lower cables onto the A-frame , the condition of these cables and their
•
nicopress, the pushpin of the control bar.
Check the hanging system, the condition and positioning of the tensioning cables (make sure they
•
are not crossed) and check their holding strap at the front of the king post.
Check the hang point device condition on the trike (possible twist, cracks), the condition and
•
position of the hanging device, its butterfly nut and its security ring.
Check the connecting of the hang point trike safety cable. It must imperatively pass under the
•
tensioning cables into the loop of the retaining strap, circle the king post and pass again inside the
loop before fixing it onto the upper beam of the trike. This system ensures the fastening of the
trike as well as tensioning of the crossbars in case of failure of one of the main components.
