cockpit exit assist for older pilots
OK, seriously.......
Are you talking a pilot getting in and out or older people/sorta disabled that go for rides? What ship/ships? What is required in an ASK-21 will be different than a 2-33. For glass ships, what works on a side hinge canopy may not be the best for a front hinged. |

cockpit exit assist for older pilots
While all good ideas (some rather extreme and not good for day to day), the OP has not stated if this is for an owner that has an issue or "rides", nor has the ship been mentioned.
For some of you, wellllll......, good ideas, but likely the ATF (in the US) may want to talk to you about the devices you are using......LOL....... Ejection seats.....are some proposing that getting out of the craft also means a chute repack each time?!?! Sounds expensive for a DD....... Could make some great YouTube videos though.........;-) And peeps comment on wormburners, low saves, etc......... |

For a small fraction of the price of an installed NOAH system, you could
buy a copy of Aging Backwards - and get working on a daily stretching program. Use it or lose it. |
