Paraglider harness 
X-citing 
DHV GS-03-0191-98 
 
At one paraglider harness X-citing, MZL GS-03-191-98 of 
High Adventure an incorrect, sharp edged belt buckle has damaged the belt ribbon. 
The consequence from this is in the most unfavorable case the cut of the belt 
ribbon and loss of strenght of the harness-construction. 
These belt buckles, which have been used only in the first series have no 
engraving or stamping of an belt buckle manufacturer (see figures).





In agreement with the manufacturer 
High Adventure
Stanserstr. 107 a
CH-6064 Kerns

the DHV has decided on the following precautionary safety measures:

At all paraglider harnesses X-citing, 
MZL GS-03-191-98 of High Adventure, the belt buckles must be checked. 
Incorrect belt buckles must be maintained by the manufacturer instructions
or exchanged This airworthiness instruction comes into force when it is 
published in the News for Paragliders and Hang Gliders (NfGH). 
The precautionary safety measure must be carried out before the equipment 
is flown again. 

The Check and maintenance or the exchange has to be done by the manufacturer 
of the Paraglider harness or the german Distributer
