2. MINUTES AND MATTERS ARISING FROM THE RIGGERS MEETING OF THE 6 AUGUST 2009

Page 4, Item 8 ― AOB (vii). A Student Parachutist Equipment Change Proposal application had been received from John Page together with a set of Emergency Drills, copies of which had been circulated with the Additions to the Agenda.

Mr Page presented the equipment in question to the Committee and gave further details of his request, which was a move of handles on a Strong system to a similar configuration as the Next Tandem system including a ring around the secondary drogue release. Because of the location of the RSL he proposed that only Tandem Instructors (qualified on Next) who had been briefed and had their log book endorsed by a CCI from Skydive London, UKPC or Skydive Hinton were permitted to jump the equipment. The serial numbers of which were: 601537, 009178, 203028, 102032, 402728, 310284 and 704122.

Following some discussion, it was proposed by Pete Sizer and seconded by Kim Newton that the above equipment with the stated serial numbers be accepted for use at the listed Centres.

Carried Unanimously
