Thanks for the update,
last picture I see aircrew exiting and freefalling in positions not unlike professional skydivers.
I think this so called frog position was invented much later when parachuting became a sport.
The an question.
will the problem be fixed that when one has a low opening and is les then three second from the ground but under fully opened canopy one is standardly still killed as in IL2?
I know for a fact that an open round canopy on opening will breathe once and then has its final decent rate.
I've seen people survive this sort of low openings without a scratch several times
