Full paraglider inspection at Wingcenter

A full inspection covers your wing as a whole: canopy, lines, risers and trim. All checks follow the relevant manufacturer's requirements.

What is included?

  • Visual inspection of fabric, seams and internal structure
  • Porosity measurement and material tests as specified by the manufacturer
  • Line inspection, measurement and comparison with target values
  • Inspection report and a clear assessment of the condition

What if we find a problem?

We discuss any damage, necessary additional work and costs with you. You decide how to proceed.

When is an inspection due?

Follow your manufacturer's inspection intervals, taking into account use and the condition of your equipment. If you are unsure, send us the model and the date of the last full inspection.

Trim check / trim adjustment

CHF 180.–
Trim check and adjustment at Wingcenter

Line lengths change over time with use. During a trim check, we measure the lines by laser and compare them with the manufacturer's specifications.

Included in the price

  • Line inspection and measurement
  • Comparison with the specified target values
  • 15 minutes of trim adjustment
  • Measurement reports before and after the work

If more work is needed

We discuss any additional trim adjustments or damaged lines with you. Surcharges: softlinks + CHF 45.– · tandem + CHF 50.–.

Does this replace a full inspection?

No. A trim check focuses on the lines and trim. It does not replace a full inspection that is due.

We start once you have agreed. If additional work becomes necessary during the repair, we contact you again.
