A string-decay cascade phenomenological model that conservatively extrapolates accelerator data has been adapted to cosmic ray-air collisions. Monte Carlo simulations of extensive air showers (EAS) initiated by primary protons and nuclei have been performed. The best agreement between the predictions of this model and experimental data on spectra of electron sizes (N_e) for vertical incidence at different altitudes is found for a heavy mass composition of the cosmic rays (above the ``knee" energy).
