![]() "C Kingsbury" wrote in message k.net... Here's a more practical way of putting it. You're at 14,000', which gives you, let's just say, 10,000' to work with, which strikes me as a fair amount. Do you even bother trying? Is there a risk that the stall will tighten and/or accelerate to the point that the CAPS will not deploy properly to recover the aircraft? There is no risk of that. Look, the airplane descended several thousand feet before the pilot deployed CAPS. Surely he was attempting to recover during that time? I simply do not understand this criticism of a pilot who was following the published procedures in his aircraft manual. |
