John, No, I haven't received any special instructions about deploying the chute. The handle is between the seats, and there is a checklist item to remove the safety pin, but we just leave the pin out all the time anyway. It takes a 30-pound pull to deploy the chute, so it is pretty unlikely that we would accidentally deploy it. Unless the instructor was incapacitated, I would defer to him to deploy it.
