looked at the airport where this happened, the wires are 260 ft away to the
west of the runway.

Thank you for that.


But yea still too close for comfort, had a friend hit some high voltage
wires while skydiving, and not paying attention. burned a huge hole in
his leg and under his arm, were he brushed the wires. dammed lucky he
didn,t fry. Had to convince my wife, that it was still safe to jump, but
she never was comfortable with me going up...


Wives are like that, as well I know.
