A short-haul escape system includes an elongated line for detachable suspension from a support member on an airborne vehicle, a load-carrying receptacle attached to an end of the line, a container attachable to the airborne vehicle in proximity to the support member thereon and releasably stowing a parachute such that the parachute can be pulled from the container, and a flexible strap attached to the parachute stowed in the container and extending from the container and secured to the short-haul line such that upon detaching the line from the support member of the airborne vehicle, which will cause the line and receptacle to fall away from the airborne vehicle, the flexible strap will pull the parachute from the container so that the parachute can inflate and slow the fall of the line and receptacle to a soft landing. |
