Abstract

Antispin rolling moment produced by chute drag force. Parachute stowed prior to deployment. At deployment, bridle attachment produces antispin rolling moment. At recovery, parachute forces are in aircraft plane of symmetry. Attachment system reduces parachute diameter typically required for spin recovery of experimental aircraft during harzardous flight testing.
