Parachutist Morar dies in midair parachute accident

A national skydiving figure GEORGE MORAR, 59, died when one parachute opened inside a Cessna 182 at 5700 feet. Surviving skydivers reportedly freed the main chute, but Morar struck the plane during his jump. Pilot STEVE BROWN ordered evacuation as the craft dove. Morar had wartime service as a POW after a Korean War jump.
