I'm requesting SPECIFIC experience with chutes in RV8's IN PARTICULAR!
I want to equip my plane with chutes for both front and rear.
I have been wanting to have chutes for 20 + years and have never pulled the trigger at Sun n Fun or Oshkosh because non of the reps. had the particular model that they recommend at the show for me to try out in the plane for fit.
I would like to find a model that I could unclip and leave in place, possibly replacing a cushion(s).
Has anybody else done this?
I talked to Strong at OSH and they recommend the 304 for the front and 311 for the rear. The 304 replaces the bottom cushion in front and the 311 replaces the back cushion in the rear. For those with experience with these, how comfortable are they. I would consider putting sheepskin on these because, well,........well............. OK, I like sheep, OK!
Jerry Morris's video has rekindled my desire to get some aerobatic training and maybe start competing, or at least be able to post a video again!![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
