Shock waves, pressure distribution, and mass flow, which influence performance of parachute in supersonic flow, are discussed, and advantageous conditions postulated; experiments were made with models consisting of modified 4-in.-diam guide surface canopies, combined with cone located ahead of canopy; textile, as well as rigid models, functioned satisfactorily up to Mach numbers of 4.5; 4-ft supersonic guide surface parachute, its design based on model tests, worked satisfactorily in wind tunnel at velocities up to Mach 2.8; it failed after 90-min testing time because of fatigue.
