Namibia skydiving?

Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever Jumped in Swakopmund Namibia?

I think it is on the Soul flyers video?

We are going there in April. they have busy Tandem operations with turbine 207's

And wonderful sand dunes for ground launching!

Yes, but it was Easter weekend 1975.

I was working at a place called Grootfontein. Namibia was known as South West Africa then (as you probably know).

Desert Skydivers brought their Cessna 185 ZS-DAS over from Windhoek for the weekend. A girlfriend and I drove down from Tsumeb.

We all had a fantastic time. The views up and down the Skeleton Coast from altitude were stunning!
(I still have my old Skeleton Skydivers t-shirt).

Have a blast. Too bad I can't make it back for this one.
