Emergency Recovery Systems

At SkyEagle, we specialize in developing high-quality, advanced parachute systems designed to ensure safe emergency landings for a variety of aircraft. Our Ballistic Recovery Systems (BRS) are engineered to provide rapid deployment of parachutes in critical situations such as engine failure, loss of control, icing, or fuel exhaustion, dramatically increasing the chances of survival and minimizing the risk of injury.

We offer a range of solutions, including the T181 Aircraft Parachute Recovery System (APRS), which helps slow the descent of aircraft during emergencies, ensuring a safe landing in the event of malfunction or loss of control. For electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft and low-altitude multi-rotors, the T191 Emergency Parachute offers a reliable system to protect both crew and equipment during power failures or system malfunctions. Additionally, our T200 Industrial Drone Rescue Parachute is tailored for UAVs weighing between 25 kg and 150 kg, equipped with a high-precision sensor that continuously monitors flight conditions to ensure immediate recovery when needed. These systems reflect SkyEagle’s decades of expertise and commitment to developing parachutes that meet the diverse safety needs of modern aviation and unmanned aerial vehicles.
Ballistic Recovery Systems (BRS) was founded in 1980 by Boris Popov, a Minnesota-based inventor, after surviving a dramatic 400-foot fall in a partially collapsed hang glider in 1975. This near-fatal experience led Popov to develop the Whole Aircraft Recovery Parachute System (WARPS), a system designed to lower an entire aircraft to the ground safely in the event of loss of control, structural failure, or other in-flight emergencies. BRS is the only Whole Aircraft Recovery Parachute System certified as a retrofit for aircraft models like the Cessna 172 and Cessna 182, offering an unparalleled safety solution to general aviation.
The Ballistic Recovery System consists of a parachute and a canister containing solid-fuel rockets, which are typically installed in the rear tail section of the fuselage. The canister is connected to a handle in the cockpit, usually located on the ceiling of the cabin. The cable that connects the canister to the handle runs through the cabin above the ceiling trim.
When the pilot pulls the handle, the rocket activates, breaking through a weak section of the fuselage (similar to an airbag in a car). The rocket accelerates to approximately 50 meters per second, deploying the parachute. Once the parachute is exposed to the relative wind, it inflates, creating drag forces that slow the aircraft’s descent. The amount of drag produced depends on the aircraft’s weight, airspeed at the moment of deployment, and the parachute’s inflation rate.
