    to low to cutaway BUT you don't want to deploy reserve because it may entangle with main. So, is there a way to deploy reserve under main but safely?



    If your main canopy has forward speed, activating the reserve will cause it to deploy horizontally behind you. As it starts to inflate and rise up overhead, then you can cut-away the main.

    However, at slow speeds like that, the reserve will take a while to get out of the bag and inflate, so in your low altitude scenario, it may or may not inflate in time.

  2. I've heard of those kinds of accidents before, where each plane is in the blind spot of the other. The plane below can't see above and behind him because of his wing, and the plane above can't see the one below because of his fuselage. This usually comes about with a high-wing plane on the bottom, and a low-wing plane on top, where the wing location restricts visibility. It's a miracle no one was killed.

    I like this one: "The Link Between Traffic Noise And Weight Gain".

    Living near a highway makes you fat!

    The nerve of all those vehicle drivers. Can't they stay off the road when people are trying to sleep? They have the ability to drive a quiet electric car, but they refuse to cooperate to stop highway obesity!

    ******Sandy Hook would have been quite the claim under such a policy.


    It would have been no claim at all, since insurance policies don't cover intentional criminal acts.

    Of the policy holder.

    The perpetrator of Sandy Hook would not have been the policy holder.

    What other gun owner's liability policy do you think would cover those claims?

    This is all kind of silly anyway. A thug with a gun he obtained on the street isn't going to bother buying liability insurance for his untraceable gun, to pay compensation for his robbery victims.
