Ballistic Recovery Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:BRSI)(BRSparachutes.com), a manufacturer and worldwide supplier of whole-airplane parachute recovery systems for general and recreational aircraft along with Diamond Aircraft manufacturer of full line of general aviation aircraft, announced today that they are working together on the development of a parachute system for the 5 seat DA50 Super Star. If successful, this implementation would represent parachute integration into the largest piston single engine certified aircraft. The system is expected to be available in the 2008 timeframe. �This arrangement, upon completion, will represent another step that will make our vision of parachutes on more airplanes a reality. Our development work in other general aviation programs and our recent R&D efforts helped us to accommodate demands from this next generation piston aircraft� said Larry E. Williams BRS President�. �The DA50 Super Star will be certified to fly without the parachute. A successful program will result in a parachute that will be offered as an option and we are pleased to select BRS as our development partner in the DA50 program,� said Christian Dries, CEO of Diamond Aircraft. In Ballistic Recovery System�s 27-year history, the company has sold over 25,000 onboard emergency parachute systems to aircraft owners around the world, including over 3,300 systems on certified aircraft.
