AA Flight 1143 - Near Miss 1999

Recommended Posts

This has Jerry in it (goofy guy with the red protek :) ), never knew about this. Its from 1999, looks like the camera man could not get back in, had to let go. Then spends the rest of the time looking for it but its behind him.

Wow, good catch dad! Most likely his group would have been at least an 8 way with several of them being newbies.

I am amazed how he gave a full count but no one left....I thought the count looked funny but I didnt see anything that showed he had "stopped" anyone?

Rats, probably should have put this in General, sorry mods:(

The plane looks to be headed SSE. Thats a weird direction for them to be flying over SDD. At least now they stay further to the south on there westerly inbound to DFW. That video scares me, but would love to hear the audio on it.
Nothing opens like a Deere!

You ignorant fool! Checks are for workers!

First thing that made my heir stand on end was the jump plane cranking over to the right with floaters out. I mean... WTF was that about?!?

I had a similar experience (plane making a big maneuver when it shouldn't be) but it was a C-182 & caused by the pilot's door popping open (he put his left foot down, closed the door & tried cranking it back to the right). Since I was doing a solo & I saw I could still make a "designated landing area," I exited instead of making another pass. Result was a stand-up under a T-10 (@ 185lbs). B| Also happened to be my off-student jump. :$

When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.
