A fast-rope system for use with a rotary aircraft includes a tubular housing attached to an interior portion of a cabin and adjacent to an upper portion of an exit door opening of the rotary aircraft and a fast-rope frame structure rotatably coupled to the tubular housing. The fast-rope frame structure includes a cylindrical pipe contained partially within the tubular housing and operable to rotate within the tubular housing and a cantilever beam structure fixedly connected to the cylindrical pipe and configured to have a fast rope attached thereto and move in response to rotation of the cylindrical pipe within the tubular housing.
