some of our aircraft are fitted with BRS chutes, as for training, none so far, but a section in the POH on their use.

Chute should only be used as an absolute last resort, situations such as pilot incapacitation, airframe failure or engine failure over inhospitable terrain. Use of the BRS chute can result in serious injury and will result in the destruction of the aircraft. forced controlled landing is preferred.
