It just gives amateurs more confidence to do stupid things (Like buy a hot sport plane full of electronic gizmo's with nasty landing characteristics as their first airplane). We
do not want that.
What we need is the piper cub to be brought back cheaply.
and more local airstrips available to the public.
- staunch 17y agoLooks sweet, and sounds like it works quite well. I don't think having a safety net is a bad thing. Would people not buy sports cars if we removed seat belts and airbags?
- RiderOfGiraffes 17y agoThe initial description on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_Recovery_Systems http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_Recovery_Systems reminded of what my uncle - an amateur aerobatics pilot - says: A good landing is one you can walk away from. A great landing is when they can use the aircraft again.
