Tributes to mother-of-four who died in 'tragic' skydiving accident

A mother-of-four was among two skydivers who died following a "tragic accident" at an airfield in Devon.

Belinda Taylor was pronounced dead at the scene following Friday afternoon's incident in the area of Dunkeswell Aerodrome near Honiton. On Facebook, her partner Scott Armstrong wrote: "I miss you so much, you were my best friend.

"Thank you for everything you've done for me, from making my children feel at home to putting up with my mess. "… there's just so much that I don't have the words to express it.

"I feel so lost. I don't know where home is without you." Ms Taylor's eldest son, Connor Bowles, paid tribute to a "selfless woman" who was also a grandmother to two young children.

Thanking investigators for their work so far, he told DevonLive: "She will be deeply missed and will leave an everlasting impression on all those she has met in life." The other skydiver who died was Adam Harrison, 30, from Bournemouth, said Devon and Cornwall Police. British Skydiving has confirmed it will be investigating the incident - with a report sent to the coroner, the Civil Aviation Authority and the police.
