A short video clip showing a near collision between a skydiver and a
light single was just shown on "Fox & Friends". The airplane looked
like a Navion with the gear extended, but it went by rather quickly.
Anyone have any additional information on this?



Is this it? This clip has been floating around a few years and was discussed
on this forum a couple of years ago.

Yeah I can see how you might think that is a navion, but if you pause it
when it is at it's closest to the divers feet, it's pretty clear it's
not. Could be a chipmunk.
