The Dutch 4 way team had a 4 way Cypres fire a few years back if my memory is still piecing things together correctly. Their audibles failed and not one looked down or at an altimeter till the Cypres fired. Time under canopy was only like 10-20 seconds.


The Danish, not Dutch, team were jumping with experimental Dytters (or Pro-Tracks) (Larsen&Brusgaard is a Danish company, remember?), and the software couldn't handle a hold at altitude - it reset ground level. At 10k.
If memory serves correctly, I've been told the cameraman followed them low and finally pulled, triggering the other four to turn to track, *poof*poof*poof*poof*.
One hates to think about off-headings, but everyone made it OK.
Turkey, ¿European Championship?
Johan.
I am. I think.
