Yes, they did, but just not enough drive for the high winds on that day. We had several days of weather delays and had to get the last day jump with the PC. I mean the winds were honking. Long time ago, I don't remember how fast, but we were way outside the school limits. Open at 4K, zero drive, and just look for an opening to land in! Also, I only weighed about 140 lbs back then, so that didn't help.

Thought it was a PC (Para Commander). Definitely at the mercy of the wind. My last jump was in high winds and was blown onto a live fire range on Fort Bragg. They had to shut the range down. The stick was spread out over 10 miles!

Been a very long time, but is that a PC? I forgot what they look like, I went to MFF/HALO School, back in the early 80's, jumped the PC and then transitioned to the Square. Seems like a lifetime ago.
