see thats just ir i havent either. most places i have ever been to have asked to see everything like reserve pack dates, AADs, licenses. but not there and i think it should be addressed thats why i put it out there.
i was on the plane when this happened and myself and the rest of the guys on there were watching because on the jump prior the female tumbled away. so as you can see we were anxious to see if it happened again. in my opinion and i am certainly not an expert it seemed a number of things....1 the speed of the aircraft was still pretty fast because obviously the pilot was still trying to gain altitude, the plane was in a jump configuration and two jumpers exited before her....2 she left the plane in a poise exit and jumped upward..something else that really bothers me about this is the jumper had only 75 jumps...75...now why was she jumping without an AAD and why did the coach or the DZ for that matter allow this??? i do know that at this dropzone they do not ask to see any kind of proof of a uspa membership or license.. i have been there several times now and have never been asked..i think this is a matter for concern and should be addressed. anybody could just go up and act like they know what they are doing and put on a rig and jump.
