I watched Dave Morss do a dry run by working his feet into the seat so he
could use his legs to force the canopy open.  This was just prior to a first
flight in a Legacy.  BUT, Dave's a pro and I imagine he would have had to do
a pull up to slow down enough to get out.  That's why they designed the aft
tilting canopy for the racers. Steve Colwell


Is it possible to bail out of a Legacy (or 360) with a forward hinged canopy?
