Escape Problems and Manoeuvres in Combat Aircraft.

Abstract

The purpose of the session was to delineate the important aspects of the escape problems in helicopters and V/STOL aircraft and to review new concepts in escape technology, including some techniques recently put into operation as well as others under test. An impressive amount of material was covered during the one day session. Fifteen papers were presented. Six of these treated escape problems in conventional and STOL aircraft. Nine presentations treated various aspects of the escape problem in helicopter aircraft. The spectrum of information covered was broad, ranging from biomedical issues in air combat mishaps in high performance aircraft to human factors and engineering aspects of inflight escape in all types of aircraft of concern.
