Would be nice to know how this compares to the death rates at other centers, and who packed the chute.
Maybe some regulation could be helpful to ensure postmortems happen so other divers can learn from the tragedy like with aviation

> With modern equipment and training methods, fatalities occur in less than 1 per 100,000 cases, and serious injuries requiring hospitalization in less than 2 per 10,000 cases. This puts the assessment of skydiving as a high-risk sport into perspective.
1 in 100k seems pretty bad if you make a hobby or job out of this
>The association maintains a database of fatal skydiving incidents on its website and said while last year its members reported making 3.65 million jumps, there were ten reported civilian deaths in US.
So 28 for a single center seems much unless they have an insane amount of jumps over the years
