A webbing system is disclosed for use as an aircraft barricade wherein a plurality of rectangularly-shaped engaging loops are arranged in an alternating, multi-planar array and suspended across a landing area in the path of an approaching aircraft upon an assembly of support loops stretched between a pair of stanchions and connected on either side to an energy absorbing device. Slidably connected along upper and lower horizontal components of the support loops, the engaging loops are free to move laterally along the support loops toward the longitudinal axis of the aircraft when penetrated by the fuselage so that the aircraft is ensnared about its wings by the loops with equalized loading and its forward motion arrested.

A webbing system for arresting the forward motion of a landing aircraft comprising: a plurality of first rectangular loops juxtaposed in substantially parallel planes and adapted to be extended substantially vertically across the path of the aircraft; and a plurality of second rectangular loops arranged within said first rectangular loops in alternating transverse rows substantially coplanar with the respective planes of said first loops, said second loops being slidably connected to respective ones of said first loops to permit a lateral movement along the entire length thereof and equalize loading on the aircraft\s wings, said second loops furthermore positioned side-by-side in the transverse rows, those in alternate rows being substantially aligned with each other and those in adjacent rows being laterally offset from each other by approximately one-half the width of said loops.
