The following jump aircraft will be on site; Antonov An-28 “Cash”, MH-1521 “Broussard”, and C-12A “Huron”(King Air 200) (for HALO). Additionally, efforts under way to obtain one of the fol-lowing historic aircraft for static line jumpers; Junkers Ju-52, Nord 2501 “Noratlas” (similar to C-119 “Flying Boxcar”), C-47 “Dakota”.
Participants in this event will have the opportunity to jump their own static line and freefall para-chutes or untilize modern military round canopy, or ram-air, parachutes, made available by the organizers.
Apart from the € 50,00 entrance / registration fee, the airborne operations, as well as provisions, will be made available at a nominal cost to all participants.
Participants have the opportunity to acquire lodging in the various local hotel, motel, or Bed & Breakfast establishments, or may also rent one of the camp sites available at the airfield, con-venient to bathroom and shower facilities.

....................................................................

Medical. Download our medical form and take it to your GP.  You must have this signed and present it at the start of the course. Without this you cannot jump.

.....................................................................

Insurance. The novices on the course do get third party insurance however this does not cover you for repatriation and in the case of the self employed you might want to consider lost of earnings insurance. This is for your peace of mind. Accidents happen when you least expect them. That's why they are called accidents.  We advise you all to take out your own insurance and get it tailored to suit you. Some companies can be found on our web site. Please ask around for the best deal.

Medical booking at Teuge (This is not always available)

As a Special favour Simon is prepared to get a doctor in on the Monday for anyone who needs a medical. Price is €30 per person and a minimum of 3 jumpers required. The doctor will visit NPCT.  Be confident you can pass a medical before choosing this option as it’s a long way to go to get turned down and there will be no refunds at that stage.

If you require the doctor to give you a medical please book as soon as you can before your course. If there are less than three patients we cannot do this. If you do not attend your medical once it’s booked you are still libel to pay.
