The multi-cell canopy of the gliding wing type comprises an upper wall and a lower wall interconnected by ribs forming partition wall defining parallel cells open on the leading edge of the wing. Parachute control lines are secured to the trailing edge for deforming a part of the latter which forms a plain flap. The canopy comprises in its upper wall at least one air outlet passage which has the shape of a rearwardly facing slot so as to direct a laminar current of air tangentially of the upper wall.
