As soon as you have completed 25 solo jumps and jumped at <<low altitude >>, the CSC certificate will allow you to jump in an RV with other skydivers.

This certificate is awarded after 5 to 15 jumps with a CSC instructor.

The aim of this certificate is to teach you :

• move horizontally and vertically.
• land someone without taking risks.
• make a separation at a reasonable safe distance.

The CSC teaches you to jump safely with other people.

> Without this certificate, multi-jumping is not permitted.

Freefly jumps increase the speed of the fall and therefore the risks involved.

The aim of these certificates is :

• to ensure that beginners progress safely, in a seated, head-down position.
• only allow freeflying with appropriate and compliant equipment.
• to limit the size of groups (1 to 2 people) until participants are capable of joining larger groups.
• to improve communication between experienced freeflyers and beginners regarding freefly technique.

It is forbidden to freefly without at least the FF-A licence.

There is a big difference between :

• Learning a new body position (stability);
• Learning to fly and stop in this new position (movement);
• Total mastery of this new position, whatever the size of the group (total control).

A specific check of the equipment and a briefing before each new position are essential.

The FF-A certificate is awarded after the equipment check and briefing. FF-B to FF-E certificates may be awarded on the basis of video evidence.

If the candidate does not have video proof, a jump test will be required, with or without the FF-F licence.

• It is forbidden to smoke in the hangar and near the canopies and parachutes.
• It is forbidden to consume alcohol or any other substance that could be harmful to the jump
• register your jump at least 10 minutes before the departure of the plane
• 10 min call = fitting, equipment check (by an instructor if you have less than 20 jumps), verification, descent to the boarding (preparation of the exit order)
• once you land, never cross the runway, you must go around it. Also keep a distance of 50 meters from the runway.
• after landing, you are not alone, look up so as not to interfere with another skydiver’s landing.
• Before crossing the Taxiway, look left and right to make sure the taxiway is clear (priority to aircraft)
• if you are the subject of a remark by the TD or a member of the staff, please comply. The TD or staff will give reasons if necessary.

• Set the exit order before the aircraft arrives
• Know the drop axis and the landing direction before getting on the plane
• Group jumps (from 2): check qualifications (WARP, FF license…)
• Sit in the exit order unless necessary to place in the third line next to the tandems
• Mandatory : helmets on and seatbelt up to 500m
• Know the safety rules during an emergency exit :
  > Below 500 m: Crash position,
  > From 500 m to 900m: exit and activate reserve,
  > From 900m to 4000m: normal exit
• Be ready 2-5 minutes before the jump (goggles, helmet, altimeter, gearcheck)
• Mandatory emergency/cutaway drill before the jump
• Beginners : check with a qualified instructor for exit timing
• If you notice that there are large cloud masses, adapt the groups to ensure safety in freefall
• Red light : open the door
• Green light : exit directly (remember that you are not alone on the plane)
• At the exit, do not jump up towards the tail of the aircraft

• Check your altitude regularly
• Pay attention to the differences in speed that can be generated by certain body positions
• Passage of clouds in freefall: stay in place to avoid collision, no greater horizontal displacement. If no visibility before 1200 m, track and pull.
• Break-off altitude between 1500 and 1200m to allow for sufficient separation.
• Higher break-off is always possible! Open your parachute by 1000 m (some parachutes require more than 300 m to open)

  → We never open directly above or below other jumpers!

Attention, you are not alone under your parachute!
Always keep an eye out for other jumpers and be prepared to steer clear.

• APO: Altitude – Position – Orientation
• If you need to avoid another jumper: steer to the right
• Check the position of other parachutists before entering the landing pattern
• Always respect the designated landing direction
