A device which corrects aerodynamic spin with a parachute that exerts anti-spin forces on an aircraft to effect spin recovery is described. The dual parachute towlines are each attached to the parachute and are attached to the rear fuselage equidistant to and on opposite sides of the aircraft centerline. As the parachute is deployed during spin, the parachute force acts through only the towline, and exerts its force outboard of center on the aircraft. As a result, the parachute exerts not only an anti-spin torque, but additionally causes the aircraft to roll, creating a gyroscopic anti-spin rolling moment. The additional and anti-spin rolling moment facilitates spin recovery by permitting a relatively smaller parachute to accomplish spin recovery equivalent to that of a larger parachute attached to the center of the rear fuselage.
