Airfield Fridays Week 3

Welcome to week 3 of Airfield Fridays.  We are continuing our coverage of the Airfield programs from the week!  

Lots of delays and cancellations happened this week again due to weather, but we are anxious to get out there more to cover as much as we can when we can! 

 

Here's some background information on the jump program:

It's the only program in the world where the first jump is an unassisted freefall.

The successful completion of 5 jumps results in award of the Air Force basic parachutist badge "jump wings" which they can wear the rest of their Air Force career.  

Typically, cadets or staff going through program endures 40 hours of ground training before their first jump.
