The vast majority of our local flyers would in fact be shut down if they could not use starting tables period and if forced to the ground the accidents would then really start adding up.

We use a combination of that table type and some of us the gympy ones use plain wire spool tables for starting, in my case in the wheelchair I use a carefully rehersed methods and special shot filled sand bags along with a helper well versed in my routines. The So called safety type are also fine for some however one problem that seems to precipitate many of the incidents is inadaquate table space for things like the starter, ignitor and tx. We just added four bigger ones that address that issue far better.
