Dave, I am definitely going to go out to the skydiving place and do that. I wonder if you would indulge a question or two? After the rudder pedal slammed back at some point you applied control inputs with the stick, opposite aileron I think? Was there any back pressure on the stick at all?

The stick felt kinda limp.
Could have been adrenaline made it feel that way, just don't know.

Dave,
Thank you for the fantastic presentation. We have all been eager to hear about the specifics of the accident from the PIC. It is a sobering reminder that we all need to hear again and again and again about preparedness.

Do you feel surviving egress from a non-functional glider at the top of a more typical climb like 4,000-6,000 ft with the same scenario would have been possible?
