Monday 14th October. Another newsletter and another two people arrived to start their AFF training. Rob Flux and Adrian Allen did Stage 1 of their AFF jump after a day in the classroom. It was a great day. Luke Robertson did Stages 5 & 6. Ivan Wang did Stages 7, 8 & 9 and Ailin Shao did Stage 9 – both completing their AFF Courses, well done. Adrianne (DeeDee) Murray did a Refresher. There were 4 loads done from Marj the Caravan and 16 jumpers were here to do them.
Tuesday. Rob and Adrian got stuck into it and successfully completed AFF Stages 2, 3 & 4. Luke Robertson did Stages 7 & 8. There were only 3 loads today, all pretty full with 13 jumpers here for the fun.
Wednesday. Helen Mendes was next to get started skydiving did AFF Stages 1, 2, & 3. Rob Flux breezed through Stages 5 & 6. Luke Robertson did Stage 9 – completing his AFF! Numbers were down a little. There were 3 loads today.
On Thursday we weathered out. Friday made up for yesterday. It seemed like a weekend jump day! Our only Tandem today was Li Huang. Frank Henderson started Skydiving did Stage 1 of his AFF Course. Helen Mendes did Stages 4 & 5. Adrian Allen did Stages 4, 5, 6 & 7! Rob Flux finished his AFF with Stages 7, 8 & 9 done, congratulations! There were 7 full loads done and 25 jumpers were here doing them.
Saturday was disappointing, the weather was not good. We only managed 2 loads between rain showers. However Frank Henderson got Stage 2 done. The bar opened early. It was a nice drop of much needed rain.
On Sunday the weather was great. Emily Smith and Khadija Ahmed both did a Tandem. Clinton Howard and Pulin Cui were back and did their AFF Stage 3. Frank Henderson continued on and did AFF Stages 3. 4 & 5. Helen Mendes did Stages 6, 7 & 8 and Shuyi (Shirley) Zheng did Stages 7 & 8. The week ended on a high. Lots of smiling happy students and about 25 fun jumpers made the most of it. Our new AFF instructors are getting some good jumps in.
See ya!
