Ballistic Parachute Recovery System.
(BPRS)
L.S.F.S is the UK agents for Galaxy Holding S.R.O. We are based in the south of the UK and offer servicing and installation of Galaxy GRS systems.
In 2018 Steve Pike attended a training week at the Galaxy HQ in Czech in order to learn how to remove GRS systems and safety decommission the rocket explosives.
Systems require a service overhaul every SIX years, this entails removing the system (Parachute & Rocket) from the aircraft, complete with activation handle. Strops, cables and carabiners can remain but should be inspected by the aircraft owner. L.S.F.S will decommission the system at our workshop and package and return to Galaxy. The parachute will be unpacked and undergo a full inspection, the rocket housing will be reused and loaded with new igniters and fuel. The complete system will then be returned by special carrier to the UK for refitting. This process normally several weeks depending on demand.
NOTE: From June 2024, Galaxy require the repacking to be pre-booked, use this link Parachute Rescue system repack and revision | GALAXY GRS s.r.o. You will find all the information to complete the form on the label attached to the parachute (example below). Put in the ‘preferred revision date’ box when you would like the system services, however, allow at least 5-6 weeks plus time to get the system to me for decommissioning.
Galaxy will acknowledge once you submit and confirm the revision date. PLEASE SEND COPIES TO ME. thanks
