An interesting and remarkably smooth video that even has very little wind noise. I liked it because that's where I learned in 1987. I noticed at the end
that he lands using a drogue chute. What caught my eye was that it had such a long bridle that it momentarily caught on the end of the keel. My drogue has a
very short bridle, just about ten inches. There is no chance for it to catch on anything. Also, if it is prone to oscillations (tangled, a line over,
whatever), a short bridle limits that too.
