aircraft. Use of the Ballistic Recovery System is highly recommended, it
can save life and reduce damage to the aircraft.
A second handle for Ballistic Recovery System is located in front of the
passenger seat. The two systems operate independently and separately.
Speed and altitude is needed for activation of the Ballistic Recovery
System. However, even just partially deployed parachute can significantly
reduce speed at impact. Referring to numerous years of experience, it is
key to note that the MAGNUM rescue system may work even at very low
altitudes and save human lives. In emergencies, it is recommended to
activate the MAGNUM rescue system even at altitudes which are below
limits; even this option offers a considerable chance of rescue.
Do not delay decision to use the BRS as it takes a finite time to deploy the
system and carry out post deployment drills, ideally:
• With the aircraft under control deploy before 1000 ft AO
• With the aircraft out of control deploy before 3000 ft AO
• Convert excess speed to height
• Maintain an upward vector as long as possible
• Activate at apex of flight path before aircraft stalls
