Frequently Asked Questions

These are answers to the most common questions (FAQ’s) asked by people not familiar with the cage method of flying, supplied to me by Karl Stice.

FAQ: "How do you recover the Cage from major collapse situations"?

FAQ: "How does the CAGE wing compare with paragliders in safety in major collapses"?

FAQ: "So what's wrong with brakes"?

FAQ "So why isn’t it certified to DHV and ACPUL standards"?

FAQ: "If it does improve on the concept of "weight shift" steering, and angle of attack is easily adjustable (maybe too easily?), Does then the addition of a rigid structure add complexity (and might tangle or break lines?). Also, if it lacks independent control of the two wing halves, is recovery of a collapsed wing more prone to rotation"?

FAQ: "Could brakes be replaced with something better"?

FAQ: "Which type of pilots is the CAGE designed for"?
