What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) Skydiver left aircraft with group and was video man for freefall formation flight. He opened his main canopy at normal opening altitude, and descended for landing under a fully functioning main canopy. Upon setting up for landing the skydiver made an aggressive 180 degree turn to land into the wind. The turn was initiated at a fairly low altitude but was not excessively low to prevent a safe landing. At approximately 50 feet AGL the main canopy slider (which was stowed under the skydivers chin) slipped up in front of his face and covered his eyes and camera lens. This blinded him from being able to determine safe altitude for performing his landing flare. The lack of flare and continuation of the turn resulted in too high rate of speed & high rate of descent for a safe landing. The skydiver suffered massive head trauma and later died. Parachute incident.
As the FAA filed it
(-23) SKYDIVER LEFT AIRCRAFT WITH GROUP AND WAS VIDEO MAN FOR FREEFALL FORMATION FLIGHT. HE OPENED HIS MAIN CANOPY AT NORMAL OPENING ALTITUDE, AND DESCENDED FOR LANDING UNDER A FULLY FUNCTIONING MAIN CANOPY. UPON SETTING UP FOR LANDING THE SKYDIVER MADE AN AGGRESSIVE 180 DEGREE TURN TO LAND INTO THE WIND. THE TURN WAS INITIATED AT A FAIRLY LOW ALTITUDE BUT WAS NOT EXCESSIVELY LOW TO PREVENT A SAFE LANDING. AT APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET AGL THE MAIN CANOPY SLIDER (WHICH WAS STOWED UNDER THE SKYDIVERS CHIN) SLIPPED UP IN FRONT OF HIS FACE AND COVERED HIS EYES AND CAMERA LENS. THIS BLINDED HIM FROM BEING ABLE TO DETERMINE SAFE ALTITUDE FOR PERFORMING HIS LANDING FLARE. THE LACK OF FLARE AND CONTINUATION OF THE TURN RESULTED IN TOO HIGH RATE OF SPEED & HIGH RATE OF DESCENT FOR A SAFE LANDING. THE SKYDIVER SUFFERED MASSIVE HEAD TRAUMA AND LATER DIED. PARACHUTE INCIDENT.
