dragartist,
when I was at JATE there was an annual 'fun jump' at Studland using the 22 foot steerable. Some of the JATE civilian staff did it, at least one of whom did it more than once. No I never did it. Did my ALM qualifying jumps from an Argosy long before that. Any they needed me on the a/c in case there was a hang up ! Well that was my excuse. If anyone is interested as to why ALM para training ceased then I will relate my involvement in it.
