Anyhow, how could someone see that and not be sold on ballistic
chutes? I was amazed at how gentle the landing seemed to be.
I would prefer the plane not to break up...

I can see a recovery parachute if the airplane were to be flown at or
near the edge of the envelope on a regular basis. Most people stay well
within limits. I also wonder if having one installed would tempt a pilot
to fly in a regime where he really shouldn't or isn't qualified.

Looks pretty much like exactly that, Dan.
