darkwing 4 #6 February 28, 2011 The value of this is in reminding or educating that it can be difficult or impossible to get out of a plane that is doing bad stuff. Do whatever you can to prevent the bad stuff. Pay attention to cg issues, and be sensitive to precursor behavior of the a/c. In the old days it was a bad thing if the tail on our twin beech started shaking. -- Jeff My Skydiving History Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davelepka 4 #8 February 28, 2011 QuoteComp Air 7 Turbine registration (Chile) CC-PJE From what I recall from the original thread, it was very new at the time of the accident. Maybe not first-load-of-jumpers new, but something around a couple or six months old. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coreefdiver 0 #13 February 28, 2011 this scenario is probably my biggest fear in skydiving (getting stuck in the plane with a bunch of skydivers between me and the exit, in an emergency) followed closely by a durring/after take off incident. I feel better when I'm near the door for a first out and/or hop-n-pop. Slightly clauserphobic maybe? glad everyone made it out in both the examples in this thread.DS#727, DB Cooper #41, POPS #11065, SCR #13183, FA #2125, SCS #8306, HALO #309 SRA #5930 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davelepka 4 #14 February 28, 2011 QuoteAren't you referring to this DIFFERENT accident?: Hmmm, I might be. I know I have seen both videos, and I know there was a thread discussing the crash in Chile (I remember dissecting the continuity of the jumpers different video angles), but you may be right on the mix up with regards to the outcome of the pilot. The guy in Chile may have gotten out as well, but I'm not sure now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Takeoff, about 30 seconds after the takeoff the pilot says "sh*t!" --> turns towards us and says "everything's ok!" (that was great!! That was a little scary at first.

Unless you have experienced a high-g situation you can't believe how it feels to be inches from the door, but completely stuck to the floor and unable to move. Kevin K.

davelepka 4 #20 February 28, 2011 Bingo, that's the one. There was a link to a South American message board for jumpers that had more details about what happened, and the pilot did get out of the CompAir at 2k-ish, and had only minor injuries on landing. It also confirms that the plane was just finished that month, so pretty damn new. The link to the other accident, I think from Australia, that pilot got out as well, and I think he was the one who just barely made it out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CarloC 0 #25 March 9, 2011 The fire ball is fake, the tv producers put it there to make it more scary. If i remember the pilot did land the plane, but with damages, since i saw a pic of the plane after the incident. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
