Thursday 5th  Channel 9 TV joined us for a Tandem skydive. Briana Goodchild and Michael Balk took the leap of faith. Both thoroughly enjoyed their skydives – Congrats. The boys continued with their Hop ‘n’ Pop jumps.

Friday 6th  Funtastic Friday was here. Robson started his Tandem training today, Robson will be joining the Ramblers Team as a Tandem Master, if you see him onsite come say G’day.  Nevan Murray booked if for an AFF Course. It was a Hop ‘n’ Pop week with the locals running more low altitude jumps today.

Saturday 7th  Andrew Sheehan completed AFF 4. Ed Keating completed AFF 4. Nevan Murray completed AFF 1 and 2. Robert Hensley and Michael Keddie both completed a refresher course after a bit of time away. Jim did a great 8 way Star Crest jump with the local skydivers, good one.

Sunday 8th The forecast didn’t look good. We still managed to get a couple of jumps in. Unfortunately the students didn’t get to jump today due to low clouds. We’ll try again tomorrow.
