Looks good, but I have to say theSpotmounted to the back of the
headrest scares me. I wouldn't want it hitting my head at 100kts if I
crash.


My Spot is working just fine strapped to the parachute near the
shoulder, this way it will stay with me if I bail. It does occasionly
missing a transmission but I guess this is happening when thermaling
steep.
