Glider Cockpit Safety

Well, basically head first in an open cockpit is not a good judge of cockpit safety. Sorta like landing glider canopy first (upside down), the cockpit never really comes into play. My favorite place during landing in the Ilyushin IL-76 was lieing head first on the navigator's window. In a crash it'd be over quickly. Perhaps shows how enjoyable that job was. Jim
