Aircraft Pilots & Canopy Pilots Safely Sharing The Sky
DBCOOPER replied to pyke's topic in Safety and Training

Perhaps I should re-phrase the question.How do Spectres land at a high density altitude, say maybe 5k and no wind at those wing loadings. Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

Have 4 flights on my GTI and am noticing an head down angle that sort of startles me a bit.Trying to find the magic position and when the angle increases, seem to potato chip,probably a lot of tension.Fall rates average about 88.Did 74 on a classic on my first try.Do cover a lot of ground.Any advice?

Mine came in a nylon case.Bought it,it did not come with a rig.The serrated edges on the outside are not sharp at all.The way it is attached on my Javelin is the nylon pouch that it came in is installed in the pocket on the left leg strap.The nylon case has a snap through it to the outside of the leg strap(male) and the female half is installed through some binding tape and acts as the method of extraction.Grab the binding tape and pull the snap apart and pull.If anything the serrated edge acts as something to give you a good grip with especially with gloves on.Your right, the blade portion is sharp.It was designed to cut through seat belts.Even doing combat RW I fail to see how this could hurt anyone or anything.Sure beats the hell out of those plastic things.
