Cessna Skycatcher Prototype Crashes
Moderator: drseti
crash
Here's some other info.
Taken from aero-news.net
Looks like they were doing "full power cross control spins"'
after recovery failed the pilot deployed the BRS. (explains the sparks seen by witnesses)
That failed so he bailed out using his own chute.
The airplane was a non conforming prototype. The P1 conforming prototype will take it's place in the test program.
sounds like a wild ride.
