| Description |
The student gone to the 10th jump. His previous nine jumps he jumped by static line. The instructor did not have a student parachute with static line for the student for this jump. He gave him parachute for free fall and wanted to use the IAD method of dispatching a student. Reports are that neither the student or the Instructor were educated in this training method.
At 3000 feet the student put his feet on the step and the Jumpmaster grasped his pilot chute handle (the PC was still in the BOC pocket). As the student jumped out, the handle (tube) tore off of the pilot chute and was left in the JM's hand. The student did not carry out any action to open his reserve and was falling in a spiral until he impacted the ground.
The AAD device (MPAAD) was found switched off; examination also revealed incorrect connection of the pilot chute. |
