Anyone else thinks shes hot because shes doing cool stuff like flying and to that being brave as shit landing that plane like a pro. Not your average influencer making a makeup tutorial ;-P
Fuck it's so hard to see going that fast. The side eye head turn peripheral move is the only way to see. Her eyes were prolly watering till the next day tho lol.
These are extremely rare events. It would be like wearing a helmet in case your windshield fell out. Having some in the cockpit for emergencies could help, but I don't know if it would be possible to put them on while handling said emergency.
Helmets can help race car drivers in crashes, if you're in a plane crash it's unlikely to help much. Fighter jet pilots wear helmets mainly for breathing at high altitudes (that most GA aircraft are incapable of flying at), as well as for things like an HMD.
Anybody with experience want to talk about how/why this happened? Seems like part of the problem was the small opening on the right side of the plane. But I imagine its should be designed to not break so easily considering the use case. In addition, I'm surprised the canopy would open instead of staying locked.
Good thing this pilot didn't panic and was experienced enough to still safely land the plane.
