The NYC accident got me thinking a lot more about self preservation - hence lot more research and sorting out whats best for me, and for others who shoot air to air images, and there are more out there than people think.
With the velcro pull on your left chest, be very careful with your lifejacket selection. Some lifejackets will make access to the pull pillow very dificult.
