  8. Re the applicable type rating - this kind of system doesn't really fall into either back, chest, seat or lap... so presumably isn't going to be field serviceable unless there is an additional type rating added? wouldn't you need an appropriately rated airframe mechanic to pack these ? ? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  11. Quote>Yep, imperial is SOOOOOOO much easier. In some ways it certainly is! Let's say you have that hated yard of material - cloth, paper, whatever. Let's say you want to divide it into equal strips. Divide it in half? 18 inches each. In three pieces? 12 inches. Four pieces? 9 inches. Five pieces? That one's a bit awkward. 7.2 inches. Six pieces? 6 inches. Now let's try it with a meter of material. Divide it in half? 50 centimeters In three pieces? Awkward. 33.33333 centimeters. Where's the .3333 gradation on that tape measure? Four pieces? 25 centimeters. Five pieces? 20 centimeters. Six pieces? Awkward! 16.66666 centimeters. There are advantages of using numbers that are easily divisible to people with standard measuring tools. reply]well if you want to divide your meter in 3 parts.. just fold in 3 and cut... Why measure ?? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  12. Then why are only SOME of the units base 10? Where is your base 10 watch? Where is your base 10 calendar? Where is your base 10 compass? What -exactly- makes base 10 so special? Why not binary? because most of us are born with 10 fingers, makes it easier to count... plus all them fractions in the imperial system don't sound logical to me... And as you know the world should have ME as a reference
