The safety apparatus includes a pilot chute ejector 62 and a main parachute storage. The pilot chute ejector 62 includes an actuator 1, a push-up member 15 pushed up in one direction by the actuator 1, a pilot chute 16 pushed up while being supported by the push-up member 15, a bottomed cylindrical container 18 that accommodates the actuator 1, the push-up member 15, and the pilot chute 16, and a lid 21 having a fan-shaped cross section that closes an opening end of the container 18. The actuator 1 is fixed at a position shifted from a geometric center of the fan-shaped cross section on a bottom surface of the container 18 via a base 2.
