Even if they had them on, the record of skydivers managing to get out of
a failing jump plane in an emergency isn't too good.

That's probably because the record mostly contains only those incidents

Been there, done that...lived to tell the tale...from both perspectives.

But as you pointed out in this instance with it being a night ferry
flight most probably didn't have their rigs on.
