Constructing compartment for recovery system

 

For safety reasons we decided to install a ballistic recovery system. This picture shows our own construction how to fix it in the tailcone.

The white cylinder is the rocket which if engaged in emergency will pull out the parachute (in the black box). We use the recovery system from Junkers-Profly. They have a special version for planes up to 750 kg.

I hope we will never have to use it, but it is a good feeling to have a seconde line of defense.
