Abstract
A parafoil is applicable to an earth-returning vehicle as a promising gliding system. At landing flare is a useful way to brake a parafoil. Height from the ground was appropriate as a timing of flare. Maneuver of flare was automated by H8 microcomputer. Experimental flight system with parafoil was used to verify the proposed timing of flare. As a result, effective height to start a flare was between 3.5[m] to 4.5[m]
