| Description |
| Student on her 2nd static line jump. Had a good 1st jump and was current. After exit the canopy opened well and flew straight for about 10-15 seconds and then started to spiral slowly until impact. It seems like she only released one toggle as the other toggle was still found stowed. Her hand was found in the correct manner through the un-stowed toggle. No attempt to do a reserve drill as the handles were found accessible and still in place. Our condolences to her friends and family. PASA is in the process of conducting a proper investigation into the incident. |
