The dynamic load test requires that a load equal or greater than 8Gs is applied to the glider for a period of 5 seconds. Graph B shows the time period and the minimum and maximum load applied during the given period. Three other graphs were produced to show air speed at slow, normal and fast speeds. A Brauniger AV Competition flight recorder is used because of its ability to record airspeeds and produce the required graphs. A label has been developed that accurately shows the test results and the category that the glider is rated for. If a glider fails I of the 17 tests in the STANDARD category, but passes in the PERFORMANCE category , the final result will be PERFORMANCE. The APMA label differs slightly from the new AFNOR label in that it shows the results of all the tests individually rather than only given the category of the glider. As indicated by this label, there are several tests that are not required for Competition and Tandem gliders. The first glider took about 11 weeks to perfect all the tests and produce the correct data. The test time has now been reduced to about 3 to 9 weeks depending on the weather. While the APMA is still in its infancy and there is probably more of a learning curve to go through, we have been very fortunate to have received input from many experienced pilots around the US and Europe. While AT Sports is currently the only manufacturer of paragliders in the US, it is expected that several other manufacturers will soon start producing gliders.
