These all were German pilots using the Heinecke Fallschirm (Parachute.). The Heinecke Fallschirm became government furnished equipment tahe was delivered with each aircraft. I believe that C Class aircraft when delivered, were also equipped with the Heinecke Fallschirm. The 69 recorded uses includes those who were killed using the parachute. Generally it was a failure of the harness, as in Oblt.
Erich Lowenhardt case and resulted in his death. Udet used the Heinecke twice to save his life. The first recorded use that I have, was a pilot from Jasta 56 who made a successful jump.
The German balloon observers use the Paulus Fallschirm, designed and manufactured by Kathe Paulus, a per-war aviatrix and parachutist.
Both parachutes were static-line operated.
