I don't know about the USA but here in the UK my local GA airfield suspends aircraft landings when parachutists are at or below circuit height. I believe that they might add a small margin as well.If it 'ain't broken........ Don't try to mend it !

1. The more maneuverable aircraft should give way.
2. The aircraft taking off should give way to the landing one.
3. Powered aircraft should give way to non-powered aircraft.
So, by the book, the airplane guy is at fault.
Now, all that being said- could the pilot reasonably have seen the guy and should there be other safety precautions in place (like you describe above as well as don't land your parachute right on the runway)...
...valid considerations.Les règles de l'aviation de base découragent de longues périodes de dur tirer vers le haut.

In Argentina parachute jump zones are either restricted zones or in controlled airspace, so in either case aircraft are required to be in contact with ATC.

Originally posted by Gabriel View PostIt was not he case here, but parachutes are not required to be controllable. For that reason parachutes ALWAYS have right of way over any other controllable thing.Les règles de l'aviation de base découragent de longues périodes de dur tirer vers le haut.
