Section 3 – Emergency Procedure
RESCUE SYSTEM DEPLOYMENT
10. RESCUE SYSTEM DEPLOYMENT
Rescue system should be deployed in the event of a life-threating emergency where
parachute activation is determined to be safer than continued flight and landing.
Full deployment of parachute is achieved in about 4 seconds.
Rescue system should only be activated when any other means
of handling the emergency would not protect the occupants
from serious injury.
Successful deployment depends on aircraft attitude and air-
speed: greater deployment altitude yields better chances for
successful deployment
