Default Glider Cockpit Safety

Thanks, Ross--very interesting. Spent yesterday reading about f1 cockpit design, about which I was clearly ignorant, other than being amazed at how well drivers are protected. Hadn't realized the tub was part of the car's structure. Or so heavy.

And yes--whole different impact profiles to consider.

The DG link was also a great read--thanks for sharing.
