I carry a pair of fencing pliers http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/yhst-11353365108554_2110_177265569.jpg for this purpose but really do not know if they will work as you need to swing them with a pretty hefty force( I assume) to break the canopy. They also double as a multipurpose tool for driving in tiedown stakes etc. After looking at what iis available I think I am going to add one of these S&Ws to my cockpit. -------- Milt Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=300505#300505 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 06:56:38 AM PST US From: Rob Ray Subject: Re: Rocket-List: Re: SW-911 in action Milt/Jim,-I tested my SW911 on an old RV4 canopy and it ripped it open li ke a tin can. The retractable punch end was the surprise, went clean throug h on the first try. The side benefit is the serrated edge not only cut the plexiglass, it will cut harness straps quickly as well.- Smokey --- On Mon, 6/7/10, Jim Stone wrote: From: Jim Stone Subject: Re: Rocket-List: Re: SW-911 in action Milt, Do you think a small axe would work or a tomahawk? jim On Jun 7, 2010, at 8:50 AM, n395v wrote: Keep in mind when buying a tool to GET OUT of an aircraft after an accident (crash) you are in a confined space, an unusual attitude (possibly upside down). An entry tool that is large and requires you to swing it probably ain't gon na do much good. That is why the spring loaded punches are preferable. Entry tools are designed with the presumption that you are not space confin ed. -------- Milt Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=300318#300318 le, List Admin. =0A=0A=0A ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 09:10:10 AM PST US From: Jim Stone Subject: Re: Rocket-List: Re: SW-911 in action How big a hole,1/4"?
