  • A joint Hollywood jump with the 173rd Airborne Brigade and British Paratroopers/Jump-masters.
    This was a "Family Day" jump where children and spouses could go watch their family members hop out of a perfectly good helicopter.

    When I was an Officer of the Crown, embedded in the Australian Army and shortly after Occupational Health and Safety became a big issue in the Australian Military I took a convey of Civilian Coaches into a remote location to pickup some Soldiers, who ordinarily, previously, would have been collected by Army Trucks.
    When We arrived on site, the Civilian Drivers were mystified by the fact that they couldn't see a single Soldier.
    When I told them that they were looking in the wrong direction, they looked all around them but saw nothing, so I told them to start looking up, because the Soldiers We were here to collect were Paratroopers.

    I sat on the ramp with my legs dangling over the edge on a CH47 flight from Belgium back to RAF Gutersloh. As we flew over Holland I was waving to the people enjoying the sun around some of the many lakes.
    I should also point out that I was wearing a dispatchers harness clipped firmly to one of the floor points!

    First time finding out that chinooks can be operated for paratroopers. I live relatively local to two RAF bases, RAF Brize Norton and RAF Fairford which is used more for American bombers. I see a range of cargo aircraft and the chinook definitely has one of the most unique sounds when flying with it’s pair of rotor blades.
