Aviator Dropped Safely
With Parachute
Associated Press Report.
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMT IN
FRANCE July 31. Captain Sarret a
French aviator has carried out the first
experiment on record of falling from a
moving airplane with a parachute.
Captain Sarret dropped 800 yards with
an umbrella 11 yards in diameter and
landed Safely.
He occupied and fell from the observer's
position but Blmllar experiments for the
pilot will be undertaken soon.
The aviator crawled out of the seat
when the plane was above smooth ground
and hung by his hands with the parachute
firmly attached to his body and lightly
attached to the airplane. When ha jump
ed the parachute opened perfectly and
bore him gently to the ground wjiere he
landed unharmed. This Is the first time
that an aviator has Jumped from a ma
chine with a parachute. Experiments In
the past have been made with sand bags
which were cut loqse at varying heights.
Aimougn uapiain Barret s trial was
made at a height of 80u yards it Is de
clared there Is no obstacle to jumplngH
greater distance since the parachute has
an even better chance to open. When
successful the employment of parachutes
will save the lives of many aviators. Air-
men will be able to leave their blazing
machines and will not meet death as did
Major Kaoul Lufbery on May 18.
SAN ANTONIO. Texas July SI. Rod
man Law has Jumped from' a moving air-
plane several times and landed safely with
the aid of a parachute at Kelly Field
the last time from a height of 6000 feet.
at the time of Secretary McAdoo'a visit to
Kelly field. The plane was driven by Ed
ward Stlnson and an ordinary balloon
parachute was used.
Army reports have been made on Law a
fear and It is believed nere that Captain
Sarret's experiments must have been
made In a plane which he was driving. In
order to Justify the phrase in the dis
patch that he carried out the first ex-
periment on record of falling from a mov-
ng airplane.
