Abstract:
A deployable wing that is folded so as to fit into a carrier such as an airplane that is released and automatically with the aid of parachutes to deploy and fly a given distance without assistance other than steering to reach a given destination and a propeller driven by a gas powered engine is actuated to propel the wing an extended distance. A guard is disposed adjacent to the propeller to assure that the lines of the parachutes do not get tangled into the propeller blades.
