  Still thinking about different options for fitting me plus a parachute into a 
Pitts S-1S. I have not really had a chance to try the fit with a good 
seat-pack so that is still a possibility, but just to throw the question out 
there: Are chest-pack parachutes ever used in the aerobatic aircraft world?

Can a skydiver's reserve chute be adapted for this?

Thanks,

Paul Klusman
