C'est sur que si l'homologation signifie pour vous "test en charge", ... c'est que toutes les voiles volant en compétition sont homologuées (proto compris), ...

All gliders must at least match the minimum theorical resistance defined below, and can
be:
• Type A: Certified with no change after production
• Type B: Non certified gliders produced in more than 10 pieces with no change after
production
• Type C : All other gliders
Pilots flying with type A and B, do not need any documentation.
Pilots flying with type C must bring at their first competition registration the following data,
called “Permit to Fly” (template available on the World Cup Web Site), issued by the
manufacturer, including :
• name and full address of the manufacturer
• name of the pilot allowed to fly the prototype glider
• serial number of the prototype glider
• expiry date of the document (valid until December 31st of the
current year)
• line specifications including material and diameter for top, middle and bottom lines
• Load calculation showing a minimum theoretical strength of the lines set up
• manufacturer requirements for the glider maintenance (interval for changing the lines,
weight range to fly, check interval, etc) signed by the pilot
• manufacturer agreement for the pilot to fly this prototype, signed by manufacturer.
It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to choose which pilots are flying with his prototypes.
It is the pilot’s responsibility to have all the needed and valid documents.
The type C gliders can be worked on or improved between each event but the pilot is not
allowed to make any modifications affecting structural integrity during the competition. If a
structural modification has been done between 2 competitions a new updated ”Permit to
Fly” must be provided.
