For those of our members who haven't yet joined a military airborne course at a military airborne school, we have designed specific basic airborne courses to give them the opportunity to qualify as military parachutists. Our military parachute training courses are being taught by highly qualified military parachute instructors coming from the NATO countries’ Armed Forces. The courses are held at Pribram airfield in Czech Republic by our Airborne Training Center. This courses are also opened to former military parachutists that need a refresh and will include military parachute static line descents. At the end of the Course, after the jumps, according to host Country’s regulations, students will be awarded Czech wings. On request, besides the Czech wings, there will be also awarded Slovak wings. Once our members have successfully completed the basic airborne training course and earned their military parachutists wings, they will receive the European Wings.
Attention: This operation is open only to our members. You must be a current member of European Paratroopers Association - i.e. have paid your annual EPA membership fees 2010. If you haven't yet joined Us or if you need to renew your membership please click here. |
