I think those hoodies would make a good parachute if something went wrong

I didn't see anyone use a parachute as a sail. I think I'll invent that.

He absolutely faked it. Consider:

- Happened to wear a skydiving parachute for the first time on YT on this flight
- Fuel selector line to the right wing was visibly disconnected, accounting for an empty wing, short intended flight, and the lack of fire
- Left door was ajar when prop started to sputter
- Down/up pitch inputs during "engine failure" add drag and slow the plane, whereas basic pilot training is to put the nose down to gain airspeed

This pilot had some good points.

I thought he was going to jump off. Looked like a parachute up there ready to go.

Finally flying cars! which are basically just XXL drones.

Hope they come with a parachute

From what I can find...timers and/or sensors that arm them after being deployed.
Weighted bottoms and/or little parachutes. Many types function in any position too, so upright doesn't matter.
Even ground based deployment is usually tossing them mechanically from a vehicle by the thousands, not by hand.

Ah!
Here's the explanation: "Dare Mighty Things"--the motto of the JPL team--and the outer ring of the parachute is the long/lat of JPL.

Is this the solution to the message in the parachute?

That's what's known as, The Bat Turn!

Let's not forget.....
“I’ve got this thing and it’s f—ing golden, and, uh, uh, I’m just not giving it up for f—-in’ nothing. I’m not gonna do it. And, and I can always use it. I can parachute me there.”— Nov. 5, 2008, in a conversation secretly recorded on FBI wiretap about Obama’s Senate seat.
Not exactly the type of political fundraising that was considered ordinary (or legal) in the days before Trump...selling vacant Senate seats to the highest bidder....and certainly not what Mandela was in prison for. I hope he got a few more things that were f-ing golden in prison.

Yes, the parachute is standard equipment in the SR-20/22. Also, aircraft are required to be equipped with Emergency Locator Transmitters (ELT) which in the event of a crash automatically (or can be manually turned on) begin to transmit a signal which is picked up by satellites and notifies local search and rescue.

This. This is why I never have any sympathy for the "hikers" who go out onto the ass end of nowhere without even a GPS. This guy even spent the money to get the whole-plane parachute. Which, I might add, is why he got home that day, and not have become a statistic. Although I wish he had noted the first shots were file footage of the emergency chute tests, not of his actual plane that day. Internet People are not known for their intelligence.

Sat phones can be rented pay-per-use, for virtually nothing. If you don't use it, it's a pittance. If something happens, broken leg, whatever, emergency crews can come straight to you.

I have no problem whatsoever with the government saving your life. That's what it's there for. My issue is with the huge searches due to adult "victims" negligence and stupidity.

BOSE? Bose-Einstein condensate

In a team of professional ghost busters, Anita Sengupta would most certainly be the enthusiastic and multi-talented leader. She’s already taken on roles developing launch vehicles, the parachute that famously helped land the Mars rover Curiosity, and deep-space propulsion systems for missions to comets and asteroids.


Sengupta and other members of the entry, descent and landing team for NASA's Mars rover Curiosity discuss the nail-biting details of the August 2012 landing.

Most recently, she’s carved out a niche as the project manager for an atomic physics mission, called the Cold Atom Laboratory, or CAL.

Since the mission was proposed in 2012, Sengupta has been leading a team of engineers and atomic physicists in developing an instrument that can see the unseen. Their mission is to create an ultra-cold quantum gas called a Bose-Einstein condensate, which is a state of matter that forms only at just above absolute zero. At such low temperatures, matter takes on unique properties that seemingly defy the laws of thermodynamics.
