Emergency Parachute System
The aircraft is equipped with the emergency parachute system MAGNUM 601 S-LSA. The emergency parachute
system (EPS) is intended to save lives of occupants, but the activation of the system will most likely destroy the
aircraft. In adverse circumstances, the activation may cause serious injury or death to the occupants. It is important to
read carefully the EPS system description in this chapter and Chapter 3 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES.
The EPS consists of a parachute, extraction device (rocket), activation handle and harnesses that are attached to the
fuselage structure.
A textile container with a parachute is attached to the board behind the instrument panel. The parachute is connected
to the fuselage structure by means of two main straps and one stabilizing strap. The main straps are fixed to the
attachment points on the firewall. The stabilizing strap that consists of steel rope is imbedded in the fuselage shell and
attached to the auxiliary spar of the fuselage. When the parachute deploys, the steel rope is pulled out from the
fuselage skin.
A weakened composite cover to enable rocket’s smooth egress and parachute extrac
tion closes the opening in the
fuselage.
The rocket is attached to the firewall and it is connected to an actuator installed in the center console accessible for
both pilot and co-pilot. The actuator is labelled
RESCUE SYSTEM
. The lock securing the actuator has to be removed
before flight. Even after the lock is removed, the actuator protector secures the actuator from unintentional activation
of rescue system (Fig. 7-33).
Before activation, if possible, minimize the flight speed. If time permits, stop the engine to prevent the straps from
getting to the propeller.
Activation of EPS is performed by opening the rescue system actuator protector (I.) and pulling the actuator (II.)
(Fig. 7-33). Pull the actuator straight backward with a strong, steady and continuous force until the rocket activates.
Up to 12 kg / 26.5 lb force or greater may be required to activate the rocket.
