I wouldn't rush to call them "guilty" w/o evidence that it's wrong. I exit my glider w/o the chute every flight. I can rotate the seat belt release in 1/2 a second. Releasing the chute takes almost a minute with gymnastic maneuvers, so I know there is zero chance of struggling to unfasten the chute before a bailout.

Thank you Bruce, just my sentiment. I was reluctant to state what you did fearing I'd be labeled an irresponsible bleepin' idiot by the righteous on this site for not being concerned about unfastening my chute before the jump. Since I don't have quick disconnects,it's a real fumble to open the harnesses. I do that while waiting for the golf cart and exit the glider without chute.
