Ballistic parachute
Many UL`s are equiped with one. In Germany it`s compulsory. I know of one case, during a test flight for the CT, a German UL , which lost a wing. The pilot activated the chute and got down safely. You know the eternal debate - what would you do in case of an engine failure over very hostile terrain, ?would you attempt a crash-landing or would you activate the chute ? ZeevRozenek,Modena,Italy
