A lot of people advocate for BRS or similar airframe-attached parachutes on E-ABs for phase one testing especially, but I'm not sure it's feasible on my plane due to its design. I've been thinking about making an emergency release for the door+window & wearing a personal chute (I'll get certified to use one alone, first) like they have in our local flight school's Citabria 7KCAB.
I suppose I'm not really asking if a parachute itself is worth it, though I'm still undecided. Just wondering if it's worth investigating as an alternative to a BRS or airframe chute.
