PARA-CUSHION EMERGENCY PARACHUTES
|
Each
ParaCushion system system features the patented PopTop type container with the externally mounted pilot chute which provides a flat profile
while worn & gives a quick and positive send off when released. The canopy
risers are neatly hidden in built-in channels contoured into the container.
Each container is padded with a luxurious half inch (1cm) layer of Confor™
foam, covered with rich silver grey velour fabric.
The harness utilizes a light
weight fixed-dimension main lift web with individual leg strap design
for ease of walking & maximum cockpit movement while saving weight &
space. Fully adjustable. Deployment is ripcord actuated with the handle
located at the front left side of the harness. Each system is assembled
with the popular 26 foot diameter Mid-Lite canopy freshly packed by an
FAA licensed parachute rigger. Every system is delivered in a matching
carrying bag with the complete service manual, ready for flight. |
