De welgeslaagde proef werd genomen van den Eiffeltoren te Parijs, met een pop, wegende 75 K.G.; het toestel weegt 21 K.G. de lengte van het touw is 9 M. De aviatuer gaat hangen aan het voor hem geplaatste rek, waaraan de parachute verbonden is.

English: A Parachute, as a rescue device in Airplanes. The successful test was conducted at the Eiffel Tower in Paris with a dummy weighing 75 kilograms (165 lb). The device weighed 21 kilograms (46 lb). The length of the rope was 9 metres (30 ft). The aviator hangs in the designated rack to which the parachute is attached. The future will show if a device like this will deploy in time, or if the aviator can access it in time and has the courage and presence of mind to leave his machine. |
