Morgans,
There are other ways to deal with a stick or column, and being crash-worth. Telescoping under pressure, break-away, and airbags are all strategies that work well. And can be found in which aircraft? -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

Gwengler,
Airbags are optional in all Mooneys and new Cessnas and can be retrofitted to the new production Cessnas as well. They are standard in new Cirrii and Lancairs, too. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |
