About the Aerochute
|
The Aerochute Dual is a two seater powered parachute that has had Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) approval for 15 years.
Designed specifically with safety and ease of operation in mind, it is virtually stall and spin resistant, and in the case of an engine failure it simply lands safely as a parachute would.
The machine has been tested and proven across the Australian outback for high altitude, high temperature performance. It has been flown in numerous countries around the world and in more than 10,000 hours of operations world-wide there has yet to be a serious Aerochute incident.
