So, is anyone experimenting with steerable CAPS systems? Surely given the technology in today's jump parachutes and paragliders etc, it would make some sense to use the technology to improve the glide ratio rather than just opting for an uncontrolled, straight-down approach...?
No offense, but you guys crack me up. Have a look at accident statistics. Bad things happen when pilots are allowed to steer. Not when they are prevented from it. The oh-so uncontrolled, straight-down approach has worked every time. Why change it? To make real men (tm) feel good?
