VIDEO An Australian parachuting club has been told to improve the software it uses to manage jumps, after an accident in which a jumper's 'chute hooked on an aircraft's tailplane. The incident occurred on September 20th when 16 parachutists attempted a formation jump from a Cessna 208. According to an Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) report on the incident, "As the first parachutist stepped out the door to assume the most forward (front float) position, their reserve parachute inadvertently deployed."
