visting a new dropzone

Visiting a new dropzone is super exciting – new people, new scenery, new aircraft, new adventure!
You can get the most out of your visit by being well prepared and saving on administration on arrival. 
Here’s a list of things you can and should do prior to arriving at a new dropzone.
CHECKLIST

1. Logbook

Have your logbook, filled out, up to date and signed. You should have every jump signed up until you hold a Certificate B. You should also have signatures in your logbook for things like being cleared to pack, being cleared for group sizes, for following angles, for leading angles, etc.

2. Call ahead to check the following

  • The dropzone is open and operating
  • The dropzone takes sports jumpers with your experience
  • The dropzone has equipment for hire, if you need it
  • Is there a community you can access prior to arrival, such as a facebook group.

3. Membership & Waiver

  • Video tutorial – https://youtu.be/GPbPEKfXo7M
  • Ensure your APF membership is up to date. 
  • Log into your APF portal (www.apf.com.au) and sign the online waiver for the dropzone you’re visiting. Tip: screenshot it for easy access if manifest ask you. This will save you plenty of time on the day.
  • Download the APF app for easy access to credentials on your phone.

4. Equipment
If you require gear hire, ensure the dropzone has the equipment you need.

If you have your own gear – ensure your reserve is in date and you have both reserve card and compatibility form.
Ensure you have labelled and named your own equipment.

5. Have a look at the dropzone’s website and an overhead map to familiarise yourself with the location.

6. Go with an open mind, be open to instruction, guidance and new information.

7. HAVE FUN!
