 Safety
Skydiving is a highly regulated sport and everything we do has safety as the bottom
line.
Skydive Nagambie operates under the auspices of the Australian
Parachute Federation and the Victorian Parachute Council 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.
The state of the art student equipment at Skydive Nagambie 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.
