Default parachutes & drogues

Hi K

Read the book titled Sea-Anchors and Drogues by Hinz. Your frustrating
experiences are described in the book and are a common reason why
people get frustrated and abandon the sea anchors and drogue idea. The
problems you described are remedied easily.

But then again, you may never have a reason to use those tools.

Thanks for that Bob I'll have a snoop. It's been my experience that the
difficulties are bad enough when the conditions are tolerable, but I'd
be worried in a real situation.

However I take your point & will do some reading, thanks again
