you were turning on to final in turbulence.


None of the comparable aircraft (e.g. the Bo) will be recoverable from
a fully developed spin in less than the minimum altitude required by
the chute (aroudn 800 feet, IIRC). However, getting a fully developed
spin on final will be difficult.

you follow my discussion too literally.
anything below 4,000 ft in some aircraft will see you recover into the
ground.

parachutes as a failsafe mechanism. utter baloney.
you are aware that we have just had an accident in australia where the
two pilots popped the recovery parachute and died when it delivered
the aircraft upside down to the ground?
just think what it would be like to land on your head in a parachute
fall.

bandaids are a poor substitute to good design.
