In recent times we just had a KR2 at the Gathering that lost his baggage compartment during a climbout, believe it was Marty Roberts, and jammed his elevator control so that he had VERY little deflection. Thoughts.... >Colin & Bev Rainey KR2(td) +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Yes, my first thought would be to avoid 6 G pull-ups if the baggage holder is not firmly attached. Second thought would be to protect your elevator cables from jaming due to ANY shift in baggage. If we don't learn from other peoples misfortunes we are bound to repeat them. Everyone was elated that Marty made it down without further incident but no one was happer then Marty. He immedatily replace the control stick in his right hand with a cold beverage and called it a day. Larry Flesner
