Dropped into Sibson on way home on 22 september… on arrival i seen an ambulance heli and lots of ambulance and police at the parachute landing point..i assumed it was just a training exercise going on, found out days later that sadly a parachutist had collided with another and fell to his death! very sad indeed:

Used to see a replica spitfire at Perranporth.
Nice shots, I like the cockpit shot.

Yes it was… as i said i thought it was a training thing and when i was out on sunday when it came on the news that the person who died in a skydiving accident at Sibson was named, and i clicked that it wasnt a training thing..very sad indeed.
