There have been a few of these over the years. Still have haunting memory when 5 killed at Caboolture

It is truly tragic how these incidents continue to happen. When you look at the history of these types of accidents, it really highlights how unforgiving aviation can be, especially when skydiving operations are involved.

 

 

The details coming out of these investigations are often heartbreaking, and it makes you wonder what kind of systemic issues or unforeseen factors are still lurking beneath the surface. It’s always a somber reminder to stay sharp and never take safety for granted in the air.

 

Thanks for keeping the thread updated with the latest information. Stay safe out there.

It’s also worth considering how much the pressure to maintain schedules can inadvertently impact decision-making processes. When operational demands ramp up, even the most experienced teams can face subtle challenges that accumulate over time.

 

Prioritizing thorough post-incident analyses and fostering an open culture where everyone feels comfortable flagging potential risks is really the only way to move forward and prevent future tragedies.

In GA? Anybody speaking up or pointing out problems finds themselves unemployed. Regulators know what goes on and ignore it, 48 years flying and it hasn't changed.

The Users want the LOWEST cost. THAT simply means lowest air time OR you don't get the work. It's HARD on Piston engines. All's OK till the $#!t hits the fan and People DIE/ Meat bombing is risky work with NO ROOM for error..At the time they jump the Plane is near stalled engine idling, with  a lot of rudder applied  when they are hanging off the strut on one side and maybe 2 who will Launch out from the Cabin  to be with the others at the same time  Nev
