I'm a bit miffed with the obtuse information about BRS chutes. Name one, just
one, save done by a BRS chute in an airplane, or glider, that was NOT an
ultralight or hang glider, and was done from an out-of-control situation.

THe number installed in registered aircraft is still very small and has
only begun in the last few years, so we should not expect many uses yet.

It will take a long time for experience with _certified_ installations
to be acquired, because these are only just now being offered. While the
BRS system has been tested many times, most of the installations in
sailplanes are in "experimental" category gliders, and the installation
hasn't been tested.
