The occupants of a Cirrus can hope to "survive" a spin from 900 AGL
How so, if the Cirrus cannot recover from a spin and the parachute needs
more than 900 feet to deploy?
Ya, that's the point I brought up in another subthread here, which went
unanswered. Maybe you can help.
If the deployment requires 920, does that mean after 920 you can safely
touchdown or does that mean it requires 920 + however long it takes to
slow your velocity to proper touchdown velocity? I ask because, I don't
think a chute opening 10 AGL is going to help much.
