Just when I had a fit of the "vapours" under control!
The AAIB are concerned that evacuation from overturned low-wing aircraft like Europa, Tri-Kis, ATL, etc., would be very difficult without outside help. They recommend a hand-held "implement" in the cockpit, suitable to break out through the canopy.
I intend to rig up a sheet of Lexan and try to knock a hole in it big enough to get through! Anyone have any thoughts on what would be the most suitable implement? Eg: Hammer, Axe, Domestic chopper, RAF Crash-Axe, Blunt? Sharp? Pointed? etc.
