As for the physical impairment, if he was capable of recovering from
the unusual attitude, then he was capable of getting the aircraft
level, getting the airspeed under the parachute deployment limit,
declaring an emergency, and taking a few moments to more accurately
assess his physical condition. You know, shake it out a little, see
if the leg comes back.


The situation started when he lost consciousness unexpectedly and
without notice. He seems to have decided it might well recur. Can we
really say that's the wrong choice? Under that scenario, delay is
risky.
