DrDoom- Not to second guess the driver, but if I had just
touched down on the deck, and on centerline, but not
able to stop - with a soft marsh at the end of the
strip..... I'd have just gone along for the ride &
NOT bailed out BRBR
Hank Kleeman made that decision and died after the A/C ended up inverted.
Jumping out was a good choice, IMO_
Can't be sure the A/C would end up 'sneakers down'.
