An evacuation assembly (208) of an aircraft includes an evacuation slide (220) and a sheet (240) coupled to the evacuation slide (220). The sheet (240) may be deployable in a wind curtain configuration and a canopy configuration. In the wind curtain configuration, the sheet (240) may extend, as a substantially vertical panel, longitudinally along opposing lateral sides of the evacuation slide. In the canopy configuration the sheet (240) may extend over at least a portion of a top side of the evacuation slide (220). In the canopy configuration, the sheet (240) may include a first portion that is the substantially vertical panel that extends longitudinally along the opposing lateral sides of the evacuation slide (220) and a second portion that extends over the top side of the evacuation slide (220).
