| I think I heard that story when I was a student at Vincennes University. The way I heard it was that the student and instructor were practicing turns about a point in his general area. The rest as you stated, he was mentally unstable and shot the plane. Supposedly, the instructor was hit in the leg but as ok and the plane was still available for rent at one of the SW IN with the patch job visible. It was told as a reason not to do fly low over people's houses for too long because they might start calling the FAA or even shooting at you.
Yeah, ankle carry might be a good solution, definitely not too deployable in the plane with the yoke but again, I've all but ruled out having to use it in the plane. I just want a method where I possibly can keep it around me while in the plane if it is legal to do so. How does that extra weight on the ankle feel all day? I'm going to have to ride the fine line of keeping the holster high enough that it doesn't become visible when preflighting but not so far up that I can't get to it.
I've been trying out more and more off body carry for the last week or so and it seems to work ok for now. |
