Daddy's Parachute Work

Just before he went to France Les started working in the Parachute Bay. He wasn't really in there before he went away as they didn't see much point in starting his training when he was about to go away- so it wasn't until just recently that we went in to see him at what Will calls 'Daddy's Parachute work'

They have a big loft upstairs which has a super spongy floor- designed to go easy on the knees of the guys who are packing the chutes on the floor. It is also great for wrestling and running around like a crazy.

It has a huge pool that they use to wash up the dirty chutes in.

And a high roof which they use to dry the chutes.

The bay backs onto 40 Squadron which is cool because you can go through the door and check out the Herc's and the Boeing.

We had a look at one of the chutes ready to be packed.

This is Will's jump position. Cute huh?
