He was testing a new Quad reserve system... Had a malfunction and couldn't recover, according to a friend of his that was in my old flying club.
Sad.

Very sad. I knew him for a while in the 70s. He and Bill Boothe were probably the biggest innovators of parachuting. Blue skies, Ted...

I was hoping he died of old age. Sorry to hear it was a malfunction. Damn.
