Shelton, in Mason County, used to have quite a few sky diving flights. Frequently saw parachutes floating around out over the fairgrounds. Tough ending for the man. RIP.

Yep. And if you try to break the law, the law breaks you.

80 jumps is not experienced enough IMHO to go under 1,000 feet.

That’s why I had it in quotes. We’ve a jumper here who immigrated from Moldovia who >is< an experienced jumper with over 2500 jumps - logged - he’s a tandem jumper very well trusted.

Maybe he would adjust his chute pull by 11.5 feet after each jump?
