ryoder 1,384 #3 November 11, 2009 First, have you ever tried to sit in the front seat of a small a/c with a skydiving rig on? Second, have you ever tried to get out of a small plane with conventional doors? (I did it once with the cooperation of a pilot stomping full right rudder.) Third, is that you, Funks?"There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Calvin19 0 #5 November 11, 2009 What kind of plane? there are a few situations where a parachute would be a logistic backup, but none of those situations are very applicable from a normal GA standpoint. These situations are; Aerobatics (structural failure at enough altitude) Sailplane flying (low speed midair collisions with another aircraft) Jump Pilot (idiot dumps into stabilizer*[only good for some planes]) So, in all reality, in most GA situations, a parachute is nothing but extra weight to CAUSE a accident. Unless you are in one of the above 3 situations, I recommend putting an extra 20lbs of fuel onboard and skipping the rig. leaving an airplane flying level with an experienced pilot is one thing, it is totally different when the stab is missing, or a wing is broken. the plane will be spinning INCREDIBLY fast in most major structural damage situations. to the point where you will not be able to release your restraint in time. GA airplanes almost never catastrophically fail in flight. and engine failure that you crash into a forest gives you a better survival chance than trying to bail out at 1000'.
