rigid containers are kinda bulky(but admittedly more usable) to have in the yak cockpit for the unfortunate bailout(like if everything else fails), but i/ve ofter wondered how useful something like this

would be if it was a bit smaller say and maybe a few concentric wire turns less.

like you could collapse it under/beside the seat and to use keep it collapsed and just lift up. then dump and collapse again againsts the bottom and lift up.

an idea anyway.
