Surviving free fall - worth considering?
My interest in this topic was piqued when I was thermalling locally in
a club two-seater at about 3,500 feet with no parachute of course, and
a child's red balloon went shooting past the cockpit. I saw the sudden
flash of colour and braced for a crash, reflecting soon afterwards
that i would have splattered all over someone's rooftop if it had been
another aircraft!
