PHOTO MISSED FROM LAST WEEK
Monday 30th August – and it was off to a good start. Our Tandem today was Emma Love. Plus our two new students Luke Franklin and Owen Botham took to the skies for Stage 1 of their AFF Courses. Felipe Corte was also here for a coach jump.
Tuesday – Owen and Luke got stuck into it and did AFF Stages 2, 3 & 4.
Wednesday 1st – September! Student Luke Franklin did Stages 5, 6 & 7 of his AFF Course.
On Thursday our Tandem today was Shae Collis. Vihang Rangrej returned for Stage 4 of his AFF Course and Luke Franklin stuck around and did Stage 8.
On Friday Mitchell Gowland returned and did AFF Stages 5, 6 & 7. Laura Jones was also here for a B-Rel coach jump. It was a quiet sort of a mid-week that ticked over nicely.
Saturday arrived and so did a swag of fun jumpers and a couple of teams. John Henry also arrived for a Tandem, and new aff students Roger Galito, Jason Corbitt, Crystal Woodham and Jason Alsop all the First Jump Course. Michael McCarthy was back for Stages 3 & 4, and Harley Schmith did Stages 7 & 8. Mitch did AFF Stage 9 – completing his AFF. Well done Mitch; from a packer to a skydiver! Hannah Jefferies was also back for a coach jump.
Sunday – More Tandems today. Kieren Peace, Colleen Cobbin, Brett Cobbin, and Marcela Badim Rocha Lima all took to the skies. Lots of fun jumpers were here doing their thing. Doug Dixon did a coach jump. Jason Alsop, Jason Corbitt and Roger Galitó all stuck around and managed AFF 2 before the weather set in – just after midday. Oh well, Monday is looking good!
See ya,
Macca and Team Ramblers.

That was the most exciting adrenalin rush I have ever had. It was made so easy by the staff and those who jumped at the same time as I did. Not only did I feel included, but the genuine friendly nature of the people in that plane dissolved any nerves I had. What was so invigorating to see, was the eagerness of all to get out of the plane with no hesitation. Now: to the guy who took me as a Tandem, Tye, I know this man personally and wanted to jump with him. That never distracted from the professionalism shown and practiced by this Tandem Master. You made it easy and fun and beyond that safe. You are one top notch flier and I will jump again with you should I ever decide to do it again. Thank you so much everyone.
