The Parachute Commando Unit of the Greek Air Force took off from the Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus (GCASC) Larnaca Airport with a C-130 type transport plane to make parachute jumps within the framework of an exercise. During the jumps, the parachute of a soldier from the unit didn’t open. The soldier left hanging on the plane at an altitude of 5,000 feet after his parachute didn’t open. While the pilot avoided maneuvering, those on board took action and helped the soldier. The soldier suspended in the air, was rescued by his friends minutes later. Meanwhile, it has been learned that the Chief of the General Staff General Konstantinos Floros, will reward the pilot of the Air Force’s C-130 aircraft for performing the maneuver correctly.
