Has anyone devised a way to make an emergency exist from a "rolled over" Rv with a tilt-up canopy? Picture this: " I have crashed my plane and I am upside down and there is fire in the engine " Help! What do I do?
You need to carry something heavy to break the plexiglass. BTW, this is not only for the tip-up. You will also need the same thing with the slider.

Heres a link to a thread on the subject from last year, there are probably others and various emergency egress hammers and pointed ended control sticks have been shown and discussed.
