THE company which organised a parachute jump which killed two people on the Blackdown Hills above Wellington 10 days ago has been told it can re-start skydiving operations.

Mother of four Belinda Taylor, aged 48, and skydiving instructor Adam Harrison, aged 30, died when their 15,000 feet tandem jump at Dunkeswell Aerodrome went wrong on Friday (June 13).

Both the main and reserve parachutes were thought to have failed, and skydiving at Dunkeswell was immediately suspended.

An investigation into the tragedy was started by Devon and Cornwall Police, East Devon District Council environmental health officers, and British Skydiving, the sport’s governing body.

But now Skydive Buzz, the business which operated the fatal jump, has been told it can continue with ‘normal skydiving operations’.

However, the company said on social media it was taking ‘a short pause’ and would probably not restart until the weekend.

Skydive Buzz previously said it was ‘fully co-operating’ with the inquiry into the double fatality and safety was its top priority.

A statement from the firm said: “While the investigation is ongoing, the relevant authorities have no objection to us resuming normal skydiving operations.

“However, we have taken a short pause to allow our team the time and space they need to process recent events and support one another.

“Our team have met to discuss plans to resume skydiving this coming weekend.

“We want to sincerely thank everybody who has sent kind messages, your support truly means the world to us and is helping our team more than you know.

“For all other inquiries, please bear with us.

“We are a small team, and we are grieving while still working hard to respond to everybody.

“Please remember, there are humans behind our emails, and our social media.

“Thank you for your patience and compassion.”
