Wwheelchair Skydiving:
Population:
Persons who use a wheelchair
Equiptment:
You would use the same equiptment for someone in a wheelchair that you would use for someone who is not in a wheelchair.
Persons who use wheelchairs will need assistance getting into the plane if there is no ramp available. Putting the harness on will also prove to be challenging; I read that one person in particular had to lay down while they put the harness on. Since persons in a wheelchair have little mobility, so you will have to be careful to not bend them in a way that is going to cause an injury; try doing some streches or yoga with them before hand.
