Ubisoft co-founder Claude Guillemot has died in a plane crash

Personal aircraft. The great equalizer.

I briefly entertained flying planes as a hobby. I live next to a small-ish local airfield and a coworker of mine got his license there. Then I learned more about it, and there's way to many accidents like these for me to be comfortable with the risk I'd be taking.

I have no issue with flying commercial planes, but I guess I don't trust myself _and_ the smaller planes enough to do this.

RIP Claude, horrible way to die.

Why don't planes have parachutes? like a huge parachute that pops on stall to slowly descent the plane?
