It is unlikely that Oroc/Johnston survived the crash he was certainly involved in.

2G- You consistently post unsubstantiated certainties. Unless you're some sort of clairvoyant, I can't find where in the article it says this man crashed and did not survive. At this point, he's missing and S&R is still searching. This penchant you have of inventing stuff makes all your other posts circumspect, even though some may have real value.

Seems like a "SPOT" would be a good investment for these serious XC paraglider guys.

This article has more information, including that the paraglider pilot was carrying a Garmin Inreach tracker which stopped transmitting:
