1-14 Deployment Sequence. (See Figure 1-7.)
a.
The bundle is initially droqued for 6 seconds to stabilize the load and
reduce the airspeed (I).
b.
Main canopy deployment starts after 6 seconds (2).
c.
Canopy inflation starts on line stretch. Cutters for the slider reefing
system and the deployment brakes are activated (3).
d.
Canopy inflates and the slider is disreefed during the next 4 seconds.
The canopy is left in brakes. The drogue deflates automatically (4).
e.
Canopy remains in brakes for another 4 seconds until the last cutter fires,
releasing the deployment brakes. The AGU is activated when the
deployment bag leaves the pack tray (5).
