An escape and recovery system is provided for accomplishing satisfactory and safe escape from an incapacitated helicopter or other slow flying aircraft capable of hovering at low altitudes. The system incorporates an extraction rocket which extracts the occupant from the disabled or incapacitated helicopter and which deploys his parachute into the airstream. The rocket is made to become aerodynamically unstable above a selective threshold speed so that above this value the airstream forces cause the rocket to turn into a downwind direction, thereby properly placing the inflated parachute downwind for fastest action and thereby avoiding any post-ejection interference between the occupant, the parachute and the incapacitated helicopter.
