Three principles for high delethalization within the cockpit are given: (1) the elimination of sharp, elongated, brittle, pointed, or similarly shpaed objects within the envelope of motion of the occupant in a given location; (2) the use of a body-restraint system, consisting of a belt and shoulder harness capable of withstanding 25 g's; and (3) the provision of body-segment decelerations by the use of 'mirror-image' sandwich material in cockpit structure. An example of a delethalized cockpit is also given. (Author)
