It is provided with a simple, dependable quick release mechanism which enables the ladder to be detached from the aircraft in the event of an emergency. The release mechanism operates by having the attachment pins mounted to a rotatable control shaft that is movement regulated by a ball-lock pit pin which creates a three step release procedure, preventing the shaft from accidental rotation.

• Multiple mounting configurations
• A polyfoam trailing tail for stabilization
• “Aero-Fold” main strap design and sturdy carry bag which also protects the unit from damaging UV rays.
