Sling TSi Ballistic Parachute deployment considerations

Hi all! Sorry it's been so long. I was in training for a new airplane (A330) at my airline, so that was taking up all of my time and brainpower for a while.
As promised, here is part 2 in the parachute topic. This one is dealing with the Aeronautical Decision Making associated with deploying the chute. Next video will return to more fun / scenic stuff.

One of my favorite channels! I love your content and thank you for posting your adventures & knowledge.

Great video, thanks a lot!!!

[@ausfester]

invaluable advice, thank you sir.

Great video! A+!

Thanks for posting Mike! Very informative and educational. I look forward to all your useful videos on Sling. I have a chute on mine too and often wondered about how to best use it if needed.

Thank you MIke for another excellent video and your analysis of the factors involved in the decision making. Very helpful.

Excellent video Mike and just the subject that Sling should address. When building my TSi I asked them about this topic. I think they would be wise to review and recommend your video to their clients. Credit to you …

In the US, we have and we will recommend Mike's parachute videos.

Nice one Mike. I've equipped a chute in my second aircraft. My 4 place mission didn't allow a chute in my TSi. So I'm planning to do some turn back practises and be picky with the airports to minimise the risks. Either way, the chute is a great option to have at any altitude.

Even with the chute in my TSi, with some forward ballast, I can carry 2 adults + 2 kids + bags, or 4 adults but no bags. Someone once told me, "The problem is, those kids tend to keep growing, if you keep feeding them." 😆

Great job 1AM. I know it takes a lot of time to do this. Thank you! I have a Sling 2 with Magnum chute. I agree with your analysis. It would be nice to have a data base of Sling chute deployments like Cirrus has…but maybe lack of pulls is an indicator of Rotax reliability. I think Boris Popov (founder BRS) has said “pull at any altitude if you need it!” The CZcams video titled “Rescue Parachute System in Sirius” shows a successful deployment at about 200’ or 250’ agl, I am guessing, from level flight. In the USAF, it was hammered into us to trust the ejection seat. Parachutes work great! “Pull early, pull often!”

Or here’s test pilot in a spin 14 seconds before impact! 327 agl?
