Research and development of a chute extractor device for light aircraft

Objective

Light aircraft utilisation is growing with the development of air leisure. Unfortunately number of accidents is always very high and security parachute are not always efficient and well adapted. This project aims at developing a secure parachute extractor with high performances, for light aircraft. - extraction of the new parachutes for aircraft weighing up to 700 kg - extracting time minus than 1 s. This innovative extractor will not use the pyrotechnic existing technology but a new technique based on compression of the gas to 300 bars. This will enable higher security on light aircrafts, possibilities to extract bigger parachutes and will contribute to save lives. The project will be carried out by SMEs from France, Germany and England.
