A man died when his parachute did not open during a group jump in Börgönd, Székesfehérvár. On Friday afternoon, a group of parachutists carried out a group jump at the airport in Börgönd. One man’s parachute did not open properly, and he hit the ground at high speed, police.hu reports.
When he realised that his parachute had not opened, he tried to land with the reserve parachute but failed. The 50-year-old man suffered such serious injuries that he died at the scene.
The Fejér County police launched criminal proceedings in the case, as 444.hu reports. A spokesman for the authority told MTI that the accident was probably caused by a parachute malfunction.

Another brutal accident happened at yet another airport: in Balatonfőkajár, after take-off, a gyrocopter crashed back to the ground and caught fire. The gyrocopter flipped on its side and fell to the ground.
The firefighters of the municipality of Polgárdi, who were alerted to the scene (under the guidance of the Veszprém County Disaster Management Operational Service), extinguished the burning and smouldering parts with a water jet.
There was one person in the aircraft who left the vehicle after landing. He was injured and was taken to hospital by the paramedics, baleset-info.hu reports.
