A multi-use emergency descent device for descent of a payload from an aircraft has a tape assembly in operative communication with a braking assembly and return assembly. The tape assembly has a tape wound about an axis. The braking assembly causes deceleration of the tape during unwinding and the return assembly when activated initiates retraction of the tape.
