ACHIEVEMENTS

Tiago Wursch – Completed AFF
Glenn Dudley – Completed AFF
Charmaine – Head Up Crest
Drewy – 1200 Jumps

Monday 24th June    It was a bit quiet for the first part of the week. Our newest student Karen Walsh did Stage 1 of her AFF Course.  There were only 2 loads for the day. The ten jumpers here all got their knees in the breeze.

Tuesday was about the same.  2 loads and 9 jumpers. Peter Spreull dropped by for a Tandem.  Karen Walsh did Stages 2 & 3 of her AFF Course while Tiago Wursch did Stage 9 – completing his AFF, congratulations!

Nothing moved on Wednesday. Thursday  was just about the same. There was only one Hop ‘n’ Pop load of 3 jumpers. Friday  picked up. Tiago did his photo shoot jump and a couple of B-Rel stages. Drewy’s freefly mates rocked up. There were 8 loads and 19 skydivers here. It was a beaut day.

On Saturday  John McMahon’s nephew Jack McMahon and friend Meg King arrived for a Tandem. The weather wasn’t the best but we got 7 loads done and 29 jumpers were here to fill them. Gregory Leigh started his skydiving training and had a good Stage 1 AFF. Instructor Sara ran a canopy Handling Seminar for beginners and intermediate level jumpers.

Sunday  was perfect weather – after the fog departed at noon! Then it was on and Marj didn’t stop until sunset. Robin Armstrong, Justin Ellis & Courtney Wallace-Smith waited patiently for the weather to clear and finally went up for their Tandem.  Gregory Leigh did Stages 2 & 3 and Glenn Dudley did Stage 9 – completing his AFF. Another congratulations! Sara‘s Canopy Handling Seminar continued and everyone got their jumps in. “Congrats to all my students who participated. Big achievements all around” stay tuned for next course. 33 jumpers got the 9 loads done and what a great sunset it was!

There was still a good crew here Sunday night, the bar bell was ringing and both DZ fires were ablaze! Looks like tomorrow is going to be busy too. Let you know next newsletter.

See ya!
