Abstract
This aircraft arrester net gear comprises at least one flexible frame having each at least one elementary net slidably mounted therein, in such a manner that when a forwardly projecting element of the aircraft engages the net the elementary nets can slide in relation to the frame and the horizontal width of the net mesh normally engaged by the aircraft wings is reduced; for this purpose, open-loop slack portions of the horizontal straps of the elementary nets are provided at each end thereof.
