When parachutists are dropped by means of a static line system, there is a very remote possibility of the static line being mis-routed through a wearer’s harness, or, due to a faulty exit, becoming entangled around his body or equipment. Such mishaps can prevent operation of the parachute and result in the user being suspended and towed outside the aircraft. A rapid rescue is essential to prevent injury to the parachutist and damage to the aircraft.

The IrvinGQ HUPRA product line has been enhanced to provide potential customers with a new Hupra T11 Parachute Assembly incorporating the T11 main parachute to provide improved system performance, in particular recovery of an increased mass.

The IrvinGQ Aircrew Safety Belt provides in-flight security for air despatchers, parachute jump instructors and aircrew operating by open aircraft doors and ramps.
