Hi Bruce-

I don't have a -4, but I do still have connections to the skydiving world,
including a friend who had to bail at close to 200'. He's fine, even
though the canopy didn't have a chance to open much. He was using a softie
from Para-Phernalia based upon the recommendation of another friend who was
a long time jumper and still is a rigger. Guess what kind of rigs we have
now? Especially since they do custom work, and I'm 6' 5". Also, aside
from being a very satisfied customer, I have no interest in their business.
Check them out, give them a call. Ask for Dan Tarasievich, and tell him I
sent you. (We chat at OSH each year...)

I fly an RV6 with a slider, and I have tried to open the canopy in flight
and was unable to do so. I mentioned this to another pilot, that if I had
to bail out I wasn't sure I could get out.
His response was pretty simple: "It all depends on how motivated you are!"
As I recall a pilot flying home from the EAA Arlington Flyin had a cockpit
fire and he jumped out, but without a parachute. I may have my facts
wrong, some one on the list who knows for sure should be able to confirm or
correct me.

I wore a Security 150 parachute during the early testing stages of my
RV-3 - as much for simple seating comfort as anything because I didn't
have the seat cushion arrangements fully completed. The -3 has a similar
cockpit to the -4 in terms of size, space, control stick positioning, etc.
The Security 150 is no longer available (as far as I know) so some
similar alternative will have to be found. Check at your local glider
flying airfields and you may be able to simply borrow something suitable
for a few flights as the chutes used in modern sailplanes tend to be
contour shaped thin packs. Have a look at
<http://wingsandwheels.com/page39.htm> for instance.
(My own Security 150 is more usually used when I am flying my ASW-20
sailplane - another quite elegant flying creation.)

Hi Bruce
There are only a few parachutes that fit into the RV-4.
The problem is (as always) the limited cockpit-space.
Most of the parachutes available will push you too far forward and the ones
with the seat-cushions are usually to big to fit between the seat and the
spar. There is a chute that has been especially designed for the RV-4, though.

I believe you are addressing an RV-4 incident.
I understand that the RV-4 side hinged canopy wants to open by itself. And
it is designed to separate from the airframe when opened.

Jim,
Don't take this out of context. I was only referring to exiting when the
plane is in motion. I get in and out of my -6 just fine, and feel totally
comfortable in there. If I need to turn around to set my oxygen or anything
while flying the plane is all over the place. I was trying to imagine
trying to exit the plane with it flying out of control and the wind coming
in (no canopy). This would have to be a crazy moment. Of course it already
was if I am trying to get out while airborne.

Wrong...this is the real issue. The encryption (little lock symbol) you
mention is the protection of the little strings or packets of data as
they run around the internet (Servers, switches, routers,
concentrators) Once this sensitive data arrives at the end user (AC
Spruce), there is NO or very little protection of it. Backup files get
lost, computer files get lost with sensitive data (credit card
numbers), laptops get stolen, or misplaced or the hard drives get
replaced and not destroyed.....Hackers can also get this data.
However, even when calling up on the phone and giving your credit card
number to the human operator, she/he types it into a computer which
brings us right back to the above exposures. It's a loss-loss scenario
for the consumer as usual.

We have to be pretty numb to this as well as cautious. I would rather enter

know. There have been many cases of employees keeping copies of these
numbers. Once when I was at Van's I saw somebody's order clipped to a

card number and expiration as well as the name on it right in plain site. I
understand this practice has changed.
How about the airline industry? They care a lot about your bags not being
out of your control before you check in. But, when you get off the plane
the go around on a conveyor belt for anybody to pick up. If you miss your
flight, they go around for a while before somebody removes it for "Secure"
storage.
We do the best we can, but we are still pretty much at risk everyday. Watch
for the lock and then just pay attention to your statements, credit report,
etc. Best I have figured out how to deal with it.

Subject: RV-List: SL15 Intercom problem
Hi folks,
I have finally got around to having two people in my airplane with headsets
on. I have no intercom at all. I have the SL15M with jacks wired to the
panel. There are two PTT buttons wired off the jacks. One is on the panel
(co-pilot) the other on the stick for the pilot. My headsets are Bose.
There is no side tone in the headset unless you press the PTT button. I am
reading something in the SL15 installation book about when the PTT are
installed between the jack and the headset where it would need to be
modified. I am not real good at this stuff, so not sure what is going on.
Any ideas or thoughts would be appreciated.

This is just another form of risk management. Everyone has their own
comfort levels on data security and you are both absolutely correct.
But I wouldn't just issue a blanket statement that there is NO
protection of data when it reaches its destination. Every company does
things differently and no one has figured out how to do it 100%
correctly. There are plenty of encryption techniques that are nearly
unbreakable but the human part of the equation is what usually breaks.
When I was in Kuala Lumpur I had my check card double swiped at a
shopping mall. By the next day I had several charges show up for
purchases in Japan. Prior to making this trip, and knowing I would be
there for several months, I opened an additional checking account that
had no access to any of my other accounts. I would transfer funds into
it when needed and knew that if anyone did get the card number they
wouldn't go far and couldn't get to my main accounts. So back to the
double swipe. The next morning I noticed the charges, while they were
still pending, because I would check for anything unusual when I was out
using it in less than perfect locations. I called my bank who promptly
marked the card as stolen, reversed the charges, and overnighted a new
check card to me from their Asia banks. Relatively painless and no real
skin off my back for the trouble. Funny thing is the bank has very
aggressive fraud algorithms that would routinely shut my card off for
going to places like Home Depot but they never caught this, I did.
So do what you are comfortable with and everyone needs to keep their
own eyes on their bank activities and credit reports because no one else
will. I would personally worry more about who all has your SS number
because identity theft is a whole lot harder to stop and reverse than
some charges on your CC.

No, he had it right. It was an RV-8 that had just won a craftsmanship award
at Arlington. He did make it out of the airplane. It's not completely clear,
but I think he had installed quick-release pins at the front canopy track
rollers. He had asked about and discussed getting out of his RV-8 in flight
on this list while bulding. That the week we lost two RV list members at or
going home from Arlington. The other was the take-off accident and fire that
killed a new RV-6A owner.

I fly an RV6 with a slider, and I have tried to open the canopy in flight
and was unable to do so. I mentioned this to another pilot, that if I had
to bail out I wasn't sure I could get out.
His response was pretty simple: "It all depends on how motivated you are!"
As I recall a pilot flying home from the EAA Arlington Flyin had a cockpit
fire and he jumped out, but without a parachute. I may have my facts
wrong, some one on the list who knows for sure should be able to confirm or
correct me.

Rather than credit card theft, as big, or bigger threat to your treasury
is use of debit cards. With credit cards, if they are stolen, your loss
is limited to the first $50, and in most instances, that's forgiven as
well. In short, the bank is on the hook, save for some hassles on your
part.
No so with a debit card. Anyone gaining control a debit card has full
access your account and clean it out...and you have no recourse. If
debit cards are used, you should open a separate bank account and keep
only limited funds in it to limit the loss if the debit card is lost.
You wouldn't want the debit card tied to your primary check account
which has lots of money in it.....though this probably does not apply to
anyone that owns an airplane!!!

Wrong...this is the real issue. The encryption (little lock symbol) you
mention is the protection of the little strings or packets of data as
they run around the internet (Servers, switches, routers,
concentrators) Once this sensitive data arrives at the end user (AC
Spruce), there is NO or very little protection of it. Backup files get
lost, computer files get lost with sensitive data (credit card
numbers), laptops get stolen, or misplaced or the hard drives get
replaced and not destroyed.....Hackers can also get this data.
However, even when calling up on the phone and giving your credit card
number to the human operator, she/he types it into a computer which
brings us right back to the above exposures. It's a loss-loss scenario
for the consumer as usual.

No, it wasn't his first flight. Don Corbit (I hope I spelled his name right)
had bought the plane maybe a week or two earlier and had flown it all over
the state in that time. He was scheduled for transition training the weekend
after Arlington. I recall that he was hurrying to get off the airport before
the runway closed for the air show. There was some speculation that he
hadn't made sure the stick was free during a rushed preflight, since he
entered a very steep climb right after takeoff. Others on the list, most
likely Jerry Springer, might have more first-hand knowledge of the
circumstances.
Don was a very bright and capable guy. At 38, he was a retired Microsoft
millionaire and had four little kids. I met him and rode with him a few
weeks earlier when he rented a Cessna 182 and made his first instrument
flight after getting his ticket, flying from Seattle's Boeing Field to the
fly-in at Scappoose, Oregon, where he got his first RV ride. My photo of Don
with his huge RV grin was likely one of the last taken of him.
The whole sad story is in the RV list archives. We lost more than most
realize when we lost Don. He spent most of his time at Scappoose talking to
RV pilots about what they would want in electronic instrumentation in their
airplanes. Don was a software guy and I think his wife was (is) an
electrical engineer. They had ideas and the money and brainpower - and the
ambition to make them work.

Actually, you get 1000 email ad's a day because you subscribe to a
publicly accessible mailing list. :-) Just to give you an example, the
email address I created two years ago to subscribe to these lists
receives about 100 pieces of SPAM a day after my email filters are done.
I have never used this address for anything but posting here. My
personal address that I have had for about 6 years receives about 30
pieces of spam a day and that's the one I use for ordering stuff and day
to day email. You post to mailing lists and your email address WILL get
culled from Google and other places.
I still get a kick out of the fact I can Google an email address I had
back in 1993 when USENET and BBS's were the only thing around and see
the first post I ever made to the Internet. Welcome to 1984.

I wore a Security 150 parachute during the early testing stages of my
RV-3 - as much for simple seating comfort as anything because I didn't
have the seat cushion arrangements fully completed. The -3 has a similar
cockpit to the -4 in terms of size, space, control stick positioning,
etc.
The Security 150 is no longer available (as far as I know) so some
similar alternative will have to be found. Check at your local glider
flying airfields and you may be able to simply borrow something suitable
for a few flights as the chutes used in modern sailplanes tend to be
contour shaped thin packs. Have a look at
<http://wingsandwheels.com/page39.htm> for instance.
(My own Security 150 is more usually used when I am flying my ASW-20
sailplane - another quite elegant flying creation.)

to 0 who raised the skins to cover the cockpit rail.

The breaker protects the wiring, not the instrument.
20g wire would be plenty for a 2 amp breaker for almost any length wire
