Implementation of the Most Modern Knowledge about High Performance Canopies into the Present Regulations
Original language description
High performance canopies have nowadays absolutely different flight characteristics and technical parameters in comparison with oldschool profiles. The currently valid regulations used by FAI (Federal Aeronautical Institution), USPA (United States Parachute Association) and other authorities don´t solve the problem of proper educating and licensing of high perfomance canopy pilots. In the last couple of years many skydivers have died under a fully functional parachute. Main goal of my project is increasing safety at the airports and avoiding serious injuries or death. This paper presents results from testing one of the smallest and fastest skydiving parachutes Icarus Extreme FX 66 and the beginning of testing the new prototype Daedalus JVX 66.
