She must have deployed a reserve chute, otherwise, not survivable. That plane looked like it was aiming for her.

I wonder if she filled out a flight plan, or was she using her radio??

Nearly 2 minutes of canopy restricted freefall depending on the rate of fall with that particular chute and the amount of time before deployment after the strike she could have been somewhere between 1500 and 2000 feet before the airplane hit

On the road, one can have a defensive driving. But in the skey, how can one have a defensive parachuting? Cessna is known to have caused the crash of passenger aircrafts and the death of hundreds of people.
