Is Flying worth the risk? Limiting the risks of flying - risk vs reward 4K
All of who are in aviation will likely at some point in our lives know someone personally who passed from this life while doing one of the things they love most... flying. We are heartbroken to have recently lost a beloved trike pilot and CFI, Wes Frey in a tragic trike accident. When an unfortunate event like this happens we must all reflect and question is this life of flying really worth the risk?

    So tell me something..... Is there One Best "Wing" that can carry more trikes/setups than others & that has more longevity? I'm also curious the best for gliding in the event of a power failure? I guess I'm asking for strength overall w/ gliding capabilities but I have no idea what all is out there that can be bought? I know these Trikes you are on are very high dollar so I'm just fishing w/o any knowledge about these? This is my learning guys..... thanks for being there. peace

    First I have to say I don’t want to offend you because you are my friends. One of my best flights ever was when you so kindly took me up flying over AZ with you in your trike. I have to ask why fly with a BRS if you keep the safety pin and tag attached to the handle? I don’t want to loose any more of my friends

    • @larsonadventures580
      @larsonadventures580 29 дней назад

      Hi Glynn. Great to hear from you. Thank you for your comment and concern. While I agree it would be quicker to deploy the parachute with the pin already pulled, I have mentally practiced pulling the pin and then the deployment handle. I have a fear that someone could accidentally pull the handle or catch the handle with clothing and I fear that I would forget to replace the pin prior to exiting the aircraft. I realize this is highly unlikely. In special circumstances we have pulled the pins especially when flying high over trees and rocky terrain where we know there is no chance for a landing. We have our pins tethered for this reason. Of course time is a factor when considering pulling the parachute. So I do understand why it may be beneficial to always have the pin pulled while flying. The amount of time available to deploy a parachute depends on the type of failure, malfunction and altitude available. My fears of the parachute getting pulled accidentally may be unfounded. I have never pulled the handle and I think I read it takes 30lbs to pull it. What adds to my fears is that someone had deployed my parachute on my Quick Silver Sport while it was unattended. I love these types of discussions cuz it makes me think …so thanks for bringing it up.

    • @glynnelectric
      @glynnelectric 29 дней назад

      If something happens to you, your passenger would not be able to pull the pin. It would be hard enough to reach the handle. Heart attacks, embolisms, seizures all happen fast. My friend Bill Finn died in air while flying. He never pulled his chute. It happened so fast.

    • @glynnelectric
      @glynnelectric 29 дней назад

      Time is key to have enough altitude for the chute to open. Fumbling with a pin could cost you a 1000’ or more very quickly. Some debate even turning off the engine first before you deploy your chute. That extra step might cost you the height you need for the chute to open. Let alone having to pull a small safety pin. I rather have an accidental deployment on the ground than missing my opportunity to have a deployment in the air.

  • @silverlightaviation
    @silverlightaviation Месяц назад

    Guys after 3500 hours of trike flying, designing, certifying and training others, one thing I can assure you is that that turbulence you were fighting, simply does not exist in a gyroplane. Have about 1000 hours in gyroplanes now and I find them to be much more utility and much easier to fly than trikes. Still love trikes but there is a huge delta in utilization. Not even an iota of doubt about that.

    • @larsonadventures580
      @larsonadventures580 Месяц назад

      Yes seems a lot of trike pilots go gyro. Maybe someday. We are both comfortable with the turbulence now and you can’t beat the silky soaring during smooth air. I would (me Diane) love to have both…and a Cub too! 😊
