Hi,

I picked up this vid of PLF training. Nice to show students I suppose.

Thank you for the link! I've been looking for some good video of PLFs and have found very little out there. This is perfect as I want to spend some time practicing in my backyard.

Nice find. I think that will be a great add to many AFF classes.

After being in the army airborne for 8 years PLF's are so beat into my head I doubt I will ever forget how. Guess that's a good thing.

Good video.
Im not sure if its just me but those landings seem a hell of a lot more gentle than the old airborne era of rounds!!! and the new generation for that matter.
Guess it must be the kit weight and different round design?

Here's another. I was in the middle of the field talking the student into a good body position.

The Air Force officially stopped the land parasail program about 3 months ago. I taught the Navy how to do it, now the Navy has a land program?!?Crazy
