Or maybe the BRS deploys completely, but the glider attitude is making everything gyrate so badly that it's going to be a really, really bad "touchdown". Or maybe the deployed BRS catches another glider that was nearby, enveloping the canopy and preventing that pilot from getting out. You'd want to land safely under your own canopy so you could deal with the lawyers representing the widow of the other pilot. Ok, maybe a bit extreme, but has anyone advocating BRS in gliders actually considered the risk of deploying one in a large gaggle. A free falling pilot has, by default, cleared the air the personal chute will deploy into. Not so with a BRS. Andy |
