parawing

I reel in the trailing parawing while still descending.

It had a modified frame with a half-scale version of an inflatable parawing.

Using controls on the parawing, I spill air to change course toward the river as best I can.

I wait to deploy the main chute which will slow us to speeds at which our parawing can be deployed.

I deploy our parawing on schedule.

The parawing hang glider was inducted into the Space Foundation Space Technology Hall of Fame in 1995.

But the unit on Garth's armored back counteracted Ostwelt's gravity sufficiently to greatly enhance the performance of a parawing of immemorially ancient design.

The BP Parawing is an American paramotor/powered parachute designed and produced by Spartan Microlights.

I cut the starboard lines to my trailing chutes and reel them in with the ribbon drag, leaving only the parawing outside my hull to slow our descent.

Several control methods were studied in NASA for Rogallo wings from 1958 through the 1960s embodied in different versions of the Parawing.

The parametric analysis and point design of the parawing were accomplished by Northrop- Ventura Company under a subcontract, and the contents of their final report were incorporated into the document.

At the last possible moment, I attempt to climb in an effort to stall my parawing, as I need to kill as much forward movement as possible and reduce speed to minimize any splash.

Using the fully flexible parawing or the tube-stiffened paraglider of the Paresev 1A, 1B, 1C as an alternate to spacecraft recovery was deemed too unreliable upon unfolding so round parachutes for water landings were used instead.

Rogallo was in position to seize the opportunity and with his help at the wind tunnels, NASA began a series of experiments testing Rogallo's flexible wing, which got renamed Parawing, in order to evaluate it as a recovery system for the project Gemini space capsules.
