Parachute Comfort
I mounted a 1050 BRS canister below the rear hatch. The Genesis was designed with BRS in mind, but never tested. The bridle mounts to the 4 lift-fitting, hard points just inside the skin. When deployed below 130 knots and not over 1050 GW, it will bring me down wings level with nose down about 30 degrees. If I should get center-punched bad enough to wipe out the BRS, I figure I would no longer be among the living, anyway. I feel very secure with my little red handle at arms reach and talk about a comfortable cockpit!
