Skydiver lands in tree

[fmon]

A skydiver's chute deployed but he landed in a tree at Suffolk Airport. They apparently cut him down (duh!) causing him to break a leg and injuring his back. Nightingale not available so called for Med Flight.

I guess they didn't have an aerial ladder handy? I wonder how far he fell?

As I recall, about 25 ft.
