Multiple reports describe a mid-training incident in which a flight instructor jumps out of a plane and dies, while the student pilot manages to land the aircraft safely. According to accounts from outlets covering the event, the instructor exits the aircraft during flight, leaving the student to take over. One report says the instructor told the student, “You know what you have to do, carry on,” before leaving the plane.
After the instructor’s exit, the student pilots the aircraft and performs a safe landing. The incident is also being examined by local authorities: prosecutors issue a statement saying they are investigating the circumstances leading up to what happened. While the reports agree on the core sequence—jump, instructor’s death, student landing—they do not provide matching details about the location, aircraft type, or the investigation’s findings at this time.
