Achievements

Arnold Lampel – Completed AFF
Brandon Pettersson – Completed AFF

Another week, another Newsletter. It’s starts from Monday 19th of March, and on this day Arnold Lampel did 4 jumps and his Stage 9 – completing his AFF Course! Well done Arne. Ashley Robinson also banged out three jumps completing his B-Rels. Another “Well Done”!

Tuesday and Wednesday was a bit go-slow. Jumping was light due to wind and rain. On Thursday it was still iffy but our two new Tandems Ethan and Terry Holmes meant one Marj load for the day so everybody on the drop zone got one jump in.

We still had the iffy weather on Friday so hop and pops from the 182 were the go, until Wes King arrived for a Tandem. So it was Marj time again and our very own pilot Eloise Tyler also did a Tandem.

The sausage Sizzle was a good one and Shelby won the Fooze Comp and a free ticket to height.

Saturday started with lots of flatties ready for Formation Loads but nuisance cloud delayed their program until midday. Then it was on and the Rel Workers got 4 formation loads in.

There were other skydivers here to doing different stuff. Our Tandem for the day was Maksymillian Kukielczynski. Charles Grevell arrived and did Stage 2 of his AFF Course. Luke Puxley did Stages 5, 6 & 7 and Brandon Pettersson completed Stage 9 of his AFF Course. Congratulations Brandon.

It ended up a beaut day, lots of smiling skydivers.

Then on Sunday Drew McDade was back for Stages 5 & 6. Emma and Shai were also back for more B-Rels. The formation crew still had issues with cloud but managed two jumps. We managed 7 hop and pop loads and 7 high loads.

See ya, at Easter,
Macca and the Ramblers Team.
