I use 5 point Crow harnesses in both of my planes. Quality harnesses at a reasonable price. Although unlike Mark, I have never actually dynamically tested them. :o) Just do a google search for crow safety belts. Prices start around $130. I removed and sold the Hooker harnesses out of the RV in favor of the Crows. Nothing wrong with Hookers. They are good quality as well. I just wanted a different configuration than what was in the plane.
