This is an advanced simplified system for avoiding light aircraft crashes, using rate-of-turn sensors, solenoid-operated air valves and electrical circuits with relays. The sensors and air valves provide the needed corrections to an aircraft's pitch and roll angles to prevent it from going out of control. When needed, all valves blast out high velocity air to provide lift, thus preventing the aircraft from crashing upon landing. The system does not require air compressors and air tanks. In this simplified system, the inlets of the valves receive high velocity air from the aircraft's flight motion through the atmosphere. The more air valves installed on the wings of the aircraft the more lift produced. This system can continue to provide the needed lift and altitude corrections while the aircraft is in flight, the faster the flight, the greater the system's ability to make corrections, when needed, to avoid an aircraft crash. A single air tank connected to each wing's air valves can provide high pressure air to such additional valves to furnish needed lift when the aircraft's forward velocity slackens to a slower than a predetermined value, thus ensuring that sufficient force to lift a wing is forth-coming. To assist the air valves in providing for retardation of aircraft's falling speed, 4 large umbrella-shaped parachutes have been added.

1.

1. A light-weight aircraft with a fuselage, wings, belly and a lifting provision to provide roll axis control of the aircraft, when needed, to avoid a rolling over and a loss of control of said aircraft, said lifting provision including a rate-of-turn sensor, and a plurality of solenoid-operated air valves, each of said air valves having an inlet port and outlet port and a solenoid operator for selectively closing and opening said air valves, said air valves receiving their air from the atmosphere of said aircraft in flight by having each of their inlet ports facing the front of said aircraft, while having each of said outlet ports facing vertically down for selectively blasting out air to provide sufficient lift to the appropriate wing of said aircraft after the opening of a selected air valve by its associated solenoid operator; said lifting provision also including a first electrical control circuit, said electrical control circuit including a voltage supply, a remotely operated relay, coils of said solenoids and two manual switches, said remotely operated relay having its circuit closed by the output of a rate-of-turn sensor, the first of said two switches for by-passing said relay, the second of said two switches for opening the electrical circuit to make said lifting provision inoperative, said control system being identical for both wings of the aircraft, said air valves enabling the transfer of the energy from the aircraft's forward motion to the energy of lifting an aircraft's wing.
