Hi,
Just passed my PPL.
Ive heard of quite a few people having crashes in light aircraft and have come to the conclusion that the 2 main reasons of fatalities is due to the aircraft bursting into flames on impact or the impact itself.
I have seen an aircraft i want to buy and it is a cessna with a centurion diesel engine conversion. If i was to put a ballistic parachute onto that then that would make flying alot safer wouldnt it?
In the event of loss of control i could just pull the parachute , and therefore wouldnt die from the impact. And even if i did have a good hard impact , diesel doesnt expode does it?
