Wingsuit Flying
May 12, 2009
This is one type of sport that can be extreme. This called “Wingsuit Flying.” Wingsuit flying is the art of flying the human body through the air using a special jumpsuit, called a wingsuit, that the form of a human body can make the airfoil lift. The wingsuit creates the airfoil shape with fabric sewn between the legs and under the arms. It is usually incorrectly referenced by the public as a Birdman suit or squirrel suit. The wingsuit pilot wearing a parachute equipment designed for skydiving or BASE jumping. The flier will deploy the parachute at a planned altitude and unzip the arm wings, if necessary, so they can reach up to the control toggles and fly to a normal parachute landing.
Wingsuit this airfoil to create a form that allows users to control the direction and fly to create lift. These can be used Wingsuits when skydiving or BASE jumping from launch points. To land the user then deploys the parachute which is integrated into the Wingsuit.
Sports ekstim called this because we do so from the earth (the sky) through the plane. Wingsuit flyer entering freefall wearing both wingsuit and parachute equipment. Exiting an aircraft in a wingsuit Skilled requires techniques that differ depending on the location and size of the aircraft door. These techniques include the orientation relative to the aircraft and the airflow while exiting, and the way in which the flier will spread his legs and arms at the proper time so as not to hit the aircraft or become unstable in the relative wind. The wingsuit will immediately start to fly upon exiting the aircraft in the relative wind generated by the forward speed of the aircraft. Exiting from a BASE jumping site, such as a cliff, or exiting from a helicopter or hot air balloon, is fundamentally different from exiting a moving aircraft as the initial wind speed upon exit is absent. BASE jumping out of the site, such as the cliff, or out of the helicopter or hot air balloon, is fundamentally different from that move out of the aircraft as early exit after the wind speed does not attend. In these situations a vertical drop using the forces of gravity to accelerate is required to generate the airspeed that the wingsuit can then convert to lift. Planned at a height above ground where a skydiver or BASE jumper usually akan distribute its parachute, the pilot will use his parachute wingsuit. The parachute will be flown to a controlled landing at the desired landing spot using typical skydiving or BASE jumping techniques.
Wingsuit fliers can measure their performance with the goal of using their freefall computer that will show the amount of their time in flight, with the height of their parachute deployed them, and they entered freefall altitude. The fall rate of speed can be calculated from this data and compared to previous flights. GPS receivers can also be used to plot and record the flight path of the suit, and when analyzed can indicate the amount of distance flown during the flight.BASE jumpers can use Landmarks on exit points, along with Recorded video of their flight by ground Crews , to determine their performance relative to previous flights and the flights of other BASE jumpers at the same site.
Well every extreme sport that certainly there are a very big risk if you therefore want to choose this as a hobby sport should have to learn to be first, because in this sport can be fatal taruhannya. In addition to reading the wind is the most important and valuable that can be mastered by each of the perpetrators.
