One of the themes developing here it the recoverability of the air frame,
what a crock!!

I don't think that was the thrust in this part of the thread. It perhaps
was elsewhere, but here, the level parachute landing vs. tail up or tail
down is being discussed. It seemed someone said the ultralight type
aircraft they were talking about had the chute rigged from the tail.


We don't really KNOW how it was rigged, only how it came down.
As much roll as was present, it could well be that part of the
harness got wrapped around the tailwheel or something...
