Rucksack
All Gin gliders are delivered with a durable ripstop KODURA rucksack, designed for ergonomic
carrying comfort and ease of use.
Certified Weight Range
The Mirage must be flown within the certified weight range given in the reference section at the
back of this manual. The weight range is quoted as the total weight in flight, i.e. the weight of
the pilot, motor, glider, harness and accessories. The easiest way to check your total weight is
to stand on weighing scales with all your equipment packed into your rucksack.

Have appropriate practical and theoretical training and experience for this class of glider.
Have the necessary insurance and licences.
Be in your right mind, unaffected by extreme stress, recreational or prescribed drugs.
Only fly in conditions suitable for your level of proficiency.
Wear suitable head protection; use a certified harness and emergency parachute.
Make a thorough pre-flight check.
