I'd say 6 or 7 in the UK fly Caravans or Grand Caravans. One of the UK's busiest Dz's is open 364 days a year and flies 2 Grand Caravans all year round.

Nope, no need. I was kind of hoping they would need to though, as my reserve is due in a few weeks and a free reserve repack would have been nice! -
The only details that have been published at the moment are in the safety notice here http://www.bpa.org.uk/file_uploads/File/Safery%20Notices/S%20NOTICE%201-10.doc

The UK have now temporarily grounded all Argus units until a full review can be carried out at the Safety and Training Committee next week. Bad times for Argus users.

Jason I would double check about the retractable pilot chute as the photo provided on the item certainly seems to show a retracted pilot chute! Now I don't know how difficult it is to convert this (it may just simply be a case of removing the pilot chute and reconnecting it outside of the rings) but I'm sure someone will be able to advise!

Looks like we're out of it. Thanks for all the support everyone! I really appreciate it! Shame we couldn't win though, this would have been really awesome!

The event will also receive huge publicity from the sponsoring company (the mobile network provider, Three), so it will be great publicity for Skydiving in the UK!
