To recap, one of the SparrowHawks built for Mississippi State University broke
up in flight Oct 18. The pilot parachuted safely.

Any word on why the pilot elected to "get out and walk" rather than ride
the BRS down? I wouldn't be the one to second guess his decision, but it
apparently came near to turning out very badly.
