Air Turquoise wins LBA approval
Air Turquoise SA reports it has been approved by the German authorities as a test centre for the inspection of aerial sports equipment. Paragliders (including tandems), harnesses, back protectors and reserves can now be tested and certified to LTF standards (what was known as DHV). This means the company can test and certify paragliding equipment worldwide to the EN standard and for Germany to the LTF standard.
Since EN and LTF are two different standards and tests, Air Turquoise have chosen to separate the web pages completely. You will find all reports and news concerning LTF on www.para-test.de while EN reports and news are at www.para-test.com.
