Even one is a tragedy,

How many fatal accidents attributable to a Schweizer hook failure to
release in a kiting situation would it take to have you on my side?
One? Two? Five? Come back with a specific number and I will share
with you what I have.

I CAN tell you the date, place and the name of the pilot who last
found himself 1 second from being on that list. It was 4-20-17 at SLGP
and the pilots name was Walt Connelly. Had the rope not broken....

Walt
