"Chute Deployment"

Accidental chute deployment, caused by wet Velcro before the days of safety pins in the external container. The "landing" wasn't as hard as it looks. The experience convinced my that my primary reserve chute will be considered if faced with an out landing in unlandable terrain.

Re: Video
Yeah, that was a bit confusing.

Dragonfly bridle minus towline. The weak link - undoubtedly the only - is positioned between an upper and lower bridle element - above what will be the apex / tow ring point - and is long enough to use for bass fishing.
2:24
- There's definitely a spinnaker shackle release lever on the basetube, probably another lever on the starboard downtube.
- Piece o' shit bent pin release on Malcolm's right shoulder connected directly to a secondary bridle about a mile long which runs out and back to THE secondary weak link on Sara's left shoulder.
- Primary weak link blows, primary bridle wraps, secondary weak link blows, secondary bridle wraps - full tension on the Bailey release.
2:45
At a normal release at altitude there are three hands on the control frame, one of those three also on the primary release actuator, and the fourth hand on the secondary release on the rightmost shoulder.
Compare/contrast the safety margin Sara will have on Flight #97 (see second to last still photo on that web page) when she's a rather inexperienced solo pilot.
3:37
Note the safety margin and brain dead easiness of the landing touchdown on the Happy Acres putting green and compare/contrast the situation when she's learning to land solo the safe way on the Happy Acres putting green at 4:55.
5:23
I'm betting she doesn't feel any suspension tension between that point and about 5:28.
6:05
Note that by the end of the trailer we have yet to see any of her narrow dry riverbed with large rocks strewn all over the place and field filled with seven foot high corn landings. Must be saving the good stuff for the commercial release.

Re: Video
Premature release on a tandem. Resulted in bent tail wheel boom. Wallaby-type release. Cause unknown, but pilot speculated it could have been caused by routing the release cable through the keel pocket. A number of tows were made with the same equipment earlier in the day without incident.
