Default Shoulder strap discussion

The problem with the 4 point system is that there is no force holding
the shoulder straps down except the waist belt.


This depends on where exactly the lap belt is fitted to the fuselage.
E.g. in the DG-1000, the 4 point belt holds me perfectly in the seat
even when flying inverted.
