The results of flight testing phase of an Emergency Life-Saving Instant Exit (ELSIE) System for military and commercial cargo, cargo-transport and passenger aircraft are described. ELSIE System opens emergency exits in aircraft almost instantaneously and can be designed to open all exits at one time or on a selective basis. The Flight-Test Directorate of the Aeronautical Systems Division, Air Force Systems Command, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, performed the described testing. The design evolved from Explosive Technology's STEN (Stored Energy) Passenger Egress System originally developed in 1967 and continuously demonstrated since then. This document is Volume 2 of a two-volume report. Volume I describes the design and ground-test phases of the program. (Author)
