To us, a paraglider is more than just a few kilograms of plastic. We
breathe digital life into it. Registration at MyNOVA is its birth certifi-
cate; and the service data for its entire life is collected in our Quality
Assurance Database. For the following two reasons our long-run-
ning system is not only practical, it is also vital for continuing quality
assurance:
Firstly, thanks to a user account our clients have unlimited access to
all their important data – for example, the NOVA Full Service log, Trim
Tuning data or even a change of owner.
Secondly, we gain a deeper insight into the durability of the material
and lines through the collection of this data. This helps us inform our
clients quickly in case of problems. Also, it helped/helps us to decide
which materials are most suitable for everyday paragliding. It assists

Specific procedures and inspection interval
The inspection interval is two years. Unless the checker sets the
inspection interval to one year due to a borderline condition, or the
NTT was performed by the due date in the first year. In this case the
first inspection is only due three years after the date of purchase.
If the wing has either 100 operating hours or 200 take offs before
the above mentioned deadlines, then the glider must be checked.
The inspection must be carried out by a NOVA authorised service
partner. These are the only companies where all inspections and
trim corrections meet our quality standards. You can find authorised
service partners on our website: www.nova.eu/en/try-buy/
During the NTT and NFS, the software calculates the wing trim
and suggests possible trim corrections. These are evaluated by the
person servicing the glider and then implemented through loops at
the maillons. The line lengths are not set to absolute target values
but in relation to the other line lengths. For this reason, no absolute
tolerances can be specified in the manual.
The tolerances for trim changes and the conditions and detailed
instructions for the check are defined in the check instruction and the
The NOVA Full Service is confirmed with an official stamp. Failure to
comply with the inspection interval will invalidate the airworthiness of
We also recommend that gliders which are flown in areas where the
cloth may be stressed (e.g. rocky areas, coastal areas with salty air
or if the wing has been immersed in salt water), should be checked
annually. Anyone who regularly flies aerobatics should submit their
glider for an annual check. In this case there is an even greater
responsibility on the pilot to regularly check the wing for damage.
