A parachute (1) comprises a dome shaped canopy (2) defining an apex (11) and a peripheral hem (12). The canopy (2) is constituted by a plurality of generally isosceles triangular gores (7) joined to adjacent gores along main seams (8) to define a canopy of circular plan form. The gores (7) are consituted by a plurality of panels joined together along cross seams (9). The parachute has a main suspension system comprising a plurality of primary suspension lines (3) of substantially equal length, and four manoeuvering sinspension lines (3a,3b,3c,3d) of greater length than the primary suspension lines and disposed adjacent to one another. Each of the suspension lines (3,3a,3b,3c,3d) of the main suspension system is secured, at a first end thereof, to the hem (12) of the canopy (2), the opposite ends of the primary suspension lines (3) being connected to brackets (14,15) forming part of risers (4a,4b). The opposite end of each riser (4a,4b) is adapted to be connected to a parachute harness (5). |
