We had a Delta that had lifelines that had a spring carabiner on each end onto D rings, it also had the rope running through 10mm ID smooth fuel line.

This kept the life line down a bit more and made it easier to grab.

Our new Ribcraft has one or two strands of the rope inside the D ring, not sure how they did this, either unlay the whole rope or slit the D ring bend to open it then close after the rope is through.
