Default Softie Parachute for Schleicher gliders with a seat back cutout

I wish someone would do a new ad for them (Soaring mag.). The guy in their ad is riding the bomb all wrong.

Dr. Strangelove is a great movie, but at the height of the Cold War, I am sure Director Stanley Kubrick was not willing to show the approved USAF method of riding The Bomb, lest the Soviets glean Top Secret knowledge of proper implementation. Slim Pickens (Major Kong) rode The Bomb backwards as a form of disinformation. ;-)
