There have been two incidents reported that the main webbing on the C-G 2000 has slid off the side of the frame. This causes the pilot to hang off to one side of the harness making it difficult to control the glider. On the C-G 2000 the slider moves farther forward than on the C-G 1000, putting pressure on the metal clips that keep the webbing in the center of the frame.
Eventually they work loose and the webbing moves. This can easily be fixed by removing the clips that are loose and duct taping (1/8 thick wrap) the webbing in place on the frame. All harnesses should be inspected on a regular basis. If you have any questions please contact Center of Gravity Inc.
