BRS ballistic parachute save
#113 |
Flying his Czech-built Alpin TST1 ultralight motorglider, the pilot
could not exit a spin which went inverted. Though G forces were high,
the pilot successfully deployed his parachute to a satisfactory
conclusion.
"I turned off the engine, slowly pulled back on the
stick, and kicked in left rudder. My plane went into the spin for the
practice I wanted, but it went inverted and I could not exit. At 2,000
feet I launched the chute and I am alive.
Thank you and you can chalk up
another one, BRS!"
Result: Pilot Survived!
