but to claim that out-landings are generally not survivable without a ballistic recovery system
That is exactly why I made the comment I did.
You are claiming they generally are, and I guess you are suggesting some are saying they are not.
That much is obvious and that is why the discussion doesn't justify this forum. As you will see if you read other threads and other discussion it is more complex. It is only from an appreciation of the issues that it is possible to have a sensible debate.
I didn't intend to be "rude", but was simply pointing out that your post rather suggests you haven't grasped the issues.
I know you will probably tell me you have .. .. .. but anyway just my ten and six worth, I will leave it to you.
