I think this is the bigger problem. Those that don't get out of the
glider usually die. Once most pilots have Roeger hooks on their gliders
and the muscle strength to lift themselves out of the cockpit easily,
then it might be worthwhile trying to minimize the landing injuries.


I should point out if the pilot installs a NOAH system, he can reduce
the muscle strength requirement considerably.
