Since this is sorta directed at me, and some others in this thread (especially in the US....).....

I have NEVER been against chutes for any flight.
Period.
Most of our training is in 2-33's, not good for the front seater, way worse for the rear seater (me for a decade or so....) regarding a chute.
No, don't bring up being in the dark ages on using a 2-33.......just, don't..........
