I didn't put it in. Is that a pro or con??? I don't fly with a parachute, nor would my wife. So what would it do for me? I can just see somebody pulling the rip cord in flight, the canopy comes off, but than what? by some miracle I have a chute on, than what, remove the seat belts and than what? exit the aircraft and hit the vertical, than what? how about this one, the only reason you would need to do all this is because... the wing came off, oh my! the G forces of such a thing would be so great you wouldn't be able to do anything anyway, you would probably be smashed against something and not be able to move anything. so, just fly your airplane proper and forget it.
