This disclaimer before flying a GIBBOGEAR Wing or BBTrike. Trike flying is an extremely demanding sport requiring exceptional levels of attention, judgment, maturity and self discipline. It is unlikely that you will be able to participate in it safely unless you make a conscious and continual commitment to your own safety. Trike flying is a dangerous sport and may result in injury and death even when practiced by a competent pilot using proper equipment. GIBBOGEAR Wings and BBTrikes are not covered by product liability insurance, nor have they been designed manufactured or tested to any federal or state government airworthiness standards or regulations. Do not fly them unless you are willing to assume personally all risks in the sport of Trike flying, and all responsibility for any property damage, injury, or death which may result from your use of this GIBBOGEAR Wing or BBTrike. Safe operation of this GIBBOGEAR Wing or BBTrike requires a pilot proficiency equivalent to that of a BFI (Basic Flight Instructor), as well as an equivalent level of knowledge and understanding of those wind and weather conditions which may compromise the pilot's safe control of the GIBBOGEAR Wing or BBTrike. In particular, be advised that gusty winds or turbulent conditions may interfere with even an expert pilot's ability to safely control the GIBBOGEAR Wing or BBTrike, and may cause it to crash. Never take anything for granted in Trike Flying. If you are in doubt about anything, stop and figure it out or call GIBBOGEAR. Please read and be sure you thoroughly understand
