ABSTRACT:
An arm restraint system for an ejection seat of an aircraft. The arm restraint system includes a pair of shrouds that are attached to the seat and each contain an outer channel. Extending through each outer channel is a corresponding strap that is coupled to the cockpit and fastened to a ring on the belt of the pilot. When the seat is ejected, the straps are pulled and the shrouds are deployed onto the arms of the pilot. The shrouds extend to a position which captures the wrists of the pilot, thereby preventing both sideward and upward movement of the arms.
