Fledgling Sky Divers Receive Wings
The Midnight Sim Sky Diver’s
Kodiak team launched Kodiak’s
newest, fastest, and most exciting
sport off to a flying star by mak
ing eight successful parachute
jumps last Saturday and Sunday,
over Holland’s field on Mill Bay
Road.
Members jumping were Marine
Corps Pfc Sam Williams, making
his second and third jumps; Pfc
D. W. Swan and Clayton Copsey,
making their first and second
leaps. These were all static line
jumps. Team captain, Ron Short,
made his seventeenth and eight
eenth drops, both of which were
20 second free fall delays.
“This club is unique in that it
has the smallest drop zone, the
most obstacles, and the most er
ratic winds to contend with than
any other club in the United
States,” according to Short. “Ail
of which offers a greater chal
lenge to the Kodiak team,” lie
added.
Although only thirteen jumps
have been made by the club in
Kodiak, a jumper hasn’t missed
the target by more than 200 yards,
according to the members. The
target is only 24 feet in diameter.
One of the jumpers came within
10 feet of it on last Sunday’s jump.
The members give credit for this
enviable record to the excellent
flying of Kodiak Airway’s pilots
Gil Jarvella and Ray Albrecht.
Credit is also given to the plane
and ground crew, which consists
of Marine Sgt. Roy Bemis and
Pfe Jim Patterson.
The three new members re
ceived a minimum of two weeks
training from their team captain
on chute packing, landing falls,
and operation and control of the
parachute.
Training classes for new mem
bers will be held in the near fu
ture and all interested persons
will be welcome, according to
Short.
