I have little sympathy for the pilots that flew in the conditions that they have, and dropping through 8 8ths cloud, without regard for the safety and lives of other airspace users in the area. I feel sure the management won't be interested in their well being, but I'm sure the management will be very worried as will those responsible in the Australian Parachute Federation for not taking any action after receiving many incident reports and ignoring them. I personally witnessed them jumping through cloud last Saturday morning when the cloud base was broken at 700 ft and overcast at 2000 ft.
CASA should be applauded for their action
Cheers Q
