And when you can give me the probability of that with one vs the probability of going in with without one I'll be able to make an informed decision, until then I'm left with my armchair guesswork to base my gear decision on. And that begs the question; can you give the probability of going in without one vs. the probability of going is with one? I don't think so. So what is your point?

  4. As usual Terry’s advice is spot on. I would like to emphasize: The first thing to do is pick the smallest reserve canopy you feel you want to land when you are unconscious or injured and then go from there. Remember, bigger is always better when picking a reserve.

  14. More than one person has died while they kept tugging. In the time it take for you to let go and make a second grab for you PC you can cover 1,000 feet or more. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

  17. Sally was at Perris last year, either for the POP's record or JFTC or maybe both. Can't remember for sure, too many dead brain cells. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals
  18. Kevin, Thanks for digging up that picture. The tail looks like they took if right off of a King Air. In fact it looks like a King Air with 450 PW's on it. My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals
  19. As with any D-18 until the tail comes up on take off and after it drops on landing there is very little rudder integrity. Even with the rudders up in the prop wash it is a handful because the rudders are so small.
