Hank thank you for sharing those links. The youtube video is rather difficult to listen to - BUT MAN SHOULD YOU. Great things come from these events if there are survivors. My take away is briefings, equipment, and a prayer.

I'll be briefing bailouts (once I have my chute up and running) from now on..

Equipment will now include a static line for both seats, and the canopy struts will be replaced to assist in breakaway. The Spot will be stitched to my straps in a safe to mount place. I'll keep a car map with me in my pants. I'll only wear contacts if my vision gets as bad as his back seater apparently was, and I'll wear pants if possible. If I can work it out: I'll see if I can get a water holder on my pants, but hopefully that wouldn't mean losing the pants during opening lol!

I'm obviously open to further input. But those were some big takeaways for me.
