New parachute system
Members of the 418th Flight Test Squadron perform functional testing on the ground for the experimental parachute system called the Guardian Angel Advance Parachute System. GAAPS is a threefold parachute system, which includes a freefall parachute system, a static-line parachute and a tandem parachute system. The parachute's canopy is made with a special type of fabric designed to allow the user to land at high altitudes. (U.S. Air Force photo/Rob Densmore)
