<<"He,(** ******)_  either ignored or was ignorant of the problems which 
had always attend such a system  -the impossibility of escape from an 
inverted vehicle>>

Marcello Gandini came up with an interesting solution to this problem on the
Lamborgini Countach - to fit explosive bolts to the hinges which could be
activated in an inverted emergency, I'm sure this could be adapted for the
Europa <g>.
Just remember to tell your passenger not to play with the button in
flight...............................
