I'm Just Curious About If Only The Operators of NZSAS are The Only Static Line and Military Free Fall Parachutist Qualified Personnel In The Entire NZDF or Are There Non - SOF Static Line and Military Free Fall Parachutist Qualified NZDF Uniformed Service Personnel As Well ?

[@mikemontagne2703]

Free fall, awesome!

[@_unfiltered]

Do they jump with only one parachute or do they have a backup too?

[@MPT1983]

Can any trade apply for some jump training or only those required to do so?

[@blaxkout9368]
