My seat belt shoulder harness was on and secure at the beginning of the flight, but had loosened up as I sank into the memory foam seat. I now re-check my shoulder harness periodically during flight and re-adjust. -------- David Gallagher 601 XL/Jabiru 3300 First flight 7/24/08 85 hours and climbing!
