I have read about this & seen it on TV. (sorry folks .... off topic again!)
BUT, what I would like to know is, at what stage to you decide that you can do nothing further, as the pilot, & that it is preferable to leave you fate to a parachute, that is presumably unsteerable?
I can understand ejecting, wearing a parachute, from a doomed aircraft, but I can't imagine pulling the lever for the chute, on the back of the Cirrus.
Is this as much a matter for HPL, as flying skills?
