After reports from the DHV testing and in the course of paragliding checks, it was found that older Icaro GRAVIS1 wings can suffer from a shortening of the C and D Line sets. Which will change takeoff and flight characteristics.
As a precautionary measure, ICARO is ordering a follow-up check for all GRAVIS1’s that were checked more than 12 months ago or that have been in operation for more than 75 hours.
