Safety

Print PDF

Skydiving is a highly regulated sport and everything we do has safety as the bottom line.

The Western Districts Parachute Club operates under the auspices of the Australian Parachute Federation and operations are conducted in accordance with procedures set out by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority.

Independent safety and equipment audits and inspections occur on a regular basis and we guarantee the highest level of safety from our aircraft, equipment and staff.

All student equipment at the Western Districts Parachute Club is packed and maintained according to strict guidelines. They receive a full inspection and re-pack by specially qualified packers every six months, even when they have not been used. We impose on ourselves a stringent inspection, maintenance and replacement program to ensure the highest quality performance and safety at all times. Our parachute packers and parachute riggers are qualified by the Australian Parachute Federation standards, following an extensive training and examination program.
