Original Abstract Submitted
A secondary barrier system for an aircraft includes a secondary barrier gate including a telescoping structure is disclosed. The secondary barrier gate may include a plurality of crossmembers, and at least one of the plurality of crossmembers may include a panel treatment. The secondary barrier gate is rotatable between a stowed position and a deployed position and extendable between a retracted length and an extended length. The secondary barrier gate is securable in the stowed position and the deployed position. The secondary barrier gate may be rotatably mounted to a ceiling or within a crown area of the aircraft. The secondary barrier system may also include a stowage latch actuatable to selectively release and/or secure the secondary barrier gate from/in a stowed position and a deployment latch actuatable to selectively release and/or secure the secondary barrier gate from/in one of a retracted length or an extended length.
