Lateral straps
The lateral straps adjust the angle between the thighs and the back. This angle can be set between
100° and 130°. Lengthening the straps increases the angle and vice-
versa. The easiest way to adjust them correctly is during a flight in
calm air. Remember that flying in the “supine position”, which means
leaning back, reduces the stability of the harness and increases the
risk of twisting after an asymmetric deflation.
Seat depth adjustment straps
The seat adjustment straps allow you to adjust the depth of the seat.
You can control the angle of the seat and the seat position with the
straps under the pulley. To get the optimum setting you can loosen
these straps to the maximum in the sitting position and start pulling
the straps until you get the comfort from the back support depending
on the flying style of the pilot. Don’t tighten these straps too much;
otherwise you take the load from the main straps. In this case the
strap can slip out or break out of the material during flight.
Side straps to control angle of the seat
The seat adjustment straps allow you to adjust the angle of the
front of the seat. You can control the angle of the seat and the
seat position with the straps beside the seat. To get the
optimum setting you can loosen these straps to the maximum
in the sitting position and start pulling the straps until you get
the comfort from the leg support depending on the flying style
of the pilot. Don’t tighten this strap too much; otherwise you
