BENEFITS

Double your aircraft’s normal rate of descent without reducing power or using landing gear.

Maintain engine power and aircraft maneuvering speed without build-up in speed.

Reduce engine shock cooling.

Smooth turbulence and quickly slow to turbulent air penetration speeds.

Deployable at or near Vne for an instantaneous reduction in speed.

DYNAMICS

Double parasitic drag on the aircraft.

Decrease lift.

Minimize asymmetric lift and drag reducing likelihood of entering a spin.

Increases wing loading and smooths the aircraft response to turbulence.

Decreases lift allowing for better control in crosswinds and assists with braking.
