Winch launch procedure and accidents
On Sep 5, 5:30 pm, "Jim Vincent" wrote:
The issue might not be violence, per se, but more the quick acceleration of the launch compresses the seat pillow, moving the pilot back. Unless you're on the ball, this can lead to unintended pull back on the stick. If your hand is on the release, you might release by mistake. I prefer to keep my knuckles on the release so I can easily reach it. snip Wrong kind of seat cushion? |
