Sunday 9th November the Display Team @ Coffs City Skydivers lobbed into the Food and Wine festival. It was a real shitty day and we did not know if it was going to be a goer till 10 mins out. Cloud at 1000 – 1500 had been looming most of the day with the odd break to 3000. We got the green light from Coffs Tower and cranked the old 182 up, filled her with daredevils and climbed to a neat 2500’ only to find out on jump run a big grey fluffy had come in right over the landing area. A decision was made to go round and get beneath the cloud which left us at 2000. Unfortunately our planned 5 way freefall and star burst was not to be, although the back drop for the spectators was brilliant and the visuals of the canopies opening was awesome from the ground. There were some really cool swoop landings over Coffs Creek and the demo was again a huge success.
Thanks Team you are awesome!! (Hilly Tan Slink Throb and Pom)
