CHAPTER I
Technical description of emergency parachute ATL - 88/90 - 1A (ATL-15)
1. Designation
Emergency parachute ATL –88/90 –1A (ATL-15), (hereinafter referred to as the
parachute) is designed as personal parachute assemblies for flight crew
equipment and for passengers in emergency situation.
The parachute complies with standards of European technical standard order
ETSO C23d and standard SAE AS8015B.
2. Technical parameters
a) Basic parameters
- Canopy area 36m2
- Max. parachute mass:
Part number 09999 5.8 kg with metal parts H335 + H 337
09998 6.3 kg with metal parts H405 + H 323
09997 6.4 kg with metal parts H395 + H 323
The parachute mass are defined without the portable bags and back padding.
- dimensions of the packed parachute length 530 mm
width 330 mm
height 80 mm
- force required for pulling out the ripcord 23 ÷ 97 N
b) Design
The parachute is made in three designs.
c) Functional parameters
- average vertical descent speed
at load G = 122 kg up to 7.1 m.s-1
- turning by 360° 8.6 s
d) Limiting of parachute using:
- max. operating weight 122 kg (269 lb)
- max. operating speed (at the moment
of the container opening) 278 km.h-1 (150 kt EAS)
- min. allowable altitude of the use 100 m AGL
at the aircraft speed 110 km.h-1
- environmental immunity from - 40 to + 93.7 °C
Note: The parachutes showed the reliable function at the tests with the loaded
weight 147 kg (324 lb) - max. operating weight x 1,2 at the speed
333,6 km.h-1 (180 kt EAS) - max. operating speed x 1,2.

e) Warranty term
Warranty period is 5 years providing the repair work and replacement
of worn parts is provided in time, storage and transport conditions
observed, and regular inspections related to the parachute canopy
ventilation are performed. The warranty period is calculated from the
parachute dispatch date, however maximum 6 months from the
production date (defined on the canopy and the label on the parachute
package).
The manufacturer will not accept claims in the cases below:
-If a violent parachute damage occurs or the instructions are not
observed as detailed in the Technical description and the operation
and maintenance manual:
-If the parachute logbook is not attached to the parachute or if it is
incorrectly filled;
If the parachute logbook gets lost a person from the user’s staff
authorized by the manufacturer carries out a visual inspection of the
parachute combined with a record describing the parachute’s condition
entered in the Inspection report for the parachute that is necessary to
issue a copy of the original parachute logbook. Such record shall be
sent to the manufacturer for storage and on the basis of a satisfactory
result of this record the manufacturer shall issue a new parachute
logbook marked as “COPY”.
Visual inspection of the parachute can be performed at the
manufacturer’s site. An entry specifying the parachute’s condition is
made into the Check sheet.
If the parachute manifests damage the nature of which may lead to the
assumption that mechanical and physical properties of materials used
have changed (stains of unknown origin, serious burning, shifts of
threads in fabric, damaged lines, worn and torn straps or other marks of
excessive damage) the organization authorized to perform the
maintenance will perform the mechanical-physical testing of the
parachute materials.
In case the parachute requires repair work, the organization authorized
for performing maintenance will perform it based on agreement with the
user.
f) Lifetime
The total parachute lifetime is specified for the maximum of 20 years
from the production date providing the instruction specified in the
Technical description and the Operation and maintenance manual are
observed.
The total lifetime depends on the technical state of the parachute or its
parts.
The person authorized to perform the parachute packaging for use,
must perform the inspection of the parachute completeness and its
technical state prior to its packaging for use.
If the parachute state is compliant, an authorized person will pack the
parachute. The parachute eligibility for further operation is confirmed for
the period of max. 365 days.
9
The person authorized can apply this procedure until using the total
lifetime of the parachute.
In case of finding unsuitable technical state of individual parachute
parts which is in breach of the regulations stated in the Technical
description and the Operation and maintenance manual, the parachute
must be eliminated from operation, and the incompliant part must be
replaced, or the parachute must be sent to an organization authorized
for performing maintenance.

3. Parachute function
After leaving the aircraft, the pilot activates the parachute by pulling out the
ripcord from the pocket located on the left side of the harness at the chest height.
By pulling the ripcord handle from the chest to the waste of the pilot, the ripcord
pins will be pulled out from the closing cord lugs, the container flaps will be
released, and the pilot chute will shoot in the air flow pulling out the canopy with
the lines from the container. The lines will then be released from the rubber
bands of the closing flap, spread over the whole length, and the canopy will be
filled with air. Completely filled canopy provides calm floating and safe landing.
