Description
“Dummy Flyers Help Make Air Safe”. In 1928, parachute testing involving "dummies" was a standard safety procedure used by the Joint Parachute Testing Center at the Naval Air Facility to evaluate new equipment before human use. The Test dummies, often weighing around 175 lbs, were strapped with experimental parachutes and dropped from aircraft to simulate human weight and descent.
