Selectable-Towline Spin-Chute System

Abstract

Selectable-towline spin-chute system designed to enable in-flight deployment of single emergency spin-recovery parachute from more than one attachment point on airplane. Eliminates multiple parachutes and multiple deployment systems, reducing weight and cost of emergency system. Minimizes inertial and aerodynamic deviations on airplane, contributing to overall simplification of structure and aerodynamics.
