Anchoring systems for aircraft arresting nets utilize frangible anchor links around lower horizontal straps of each net element of a composite arresting net. Each anchor link (14) may be formed from flexible plastic sheet material, with openings through which an anchor cable (30) passes and is secured to a runway surface by an anchor retainer (40). The anchor links (14) provide ease of anchoring system assembly in the field and retain the bottom of the arresting net in proper position prior to engagement of the arresting net by an aircraft overrunning the runway. When an aircraft engages the net, the anchor links (14) break to permit the net to conform to and safely stop the aircraft. Each anchor link (14) may be perforated in its central portion or otherwise formed or specified to provide suitable frangibility in an arresting incident. |
