Patty --- thanks for the quick reply. That is encouraging, and yes, I plan to practice this procedure.

One last item:
You mentioned "just in case I get upside down"... have you heard of any instances of this? It seems to be a very tight clearance, if any, between the cockpit and the ground if the plane flips. Do you think you could get out? (I like the idea of strapping a knife to the tubing in order to break the canopy, or cutting any entanglements.)

Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
