AGOW Airmen conduct static-line jumps
Tech. Sgt. Christopher Zavala, 822d Base Defense Squadron jumpmaster, walks away from a drop zone after packing up his parachute during static-line jump training, Nov. 21, 2018, at Moody Air Force Base, Ga. The overall objective of the training was to increase jumpers’ skills, knowledge and proficiency in regards to airborne operations. During a static-line jump, the jumper is attached to the aircraft via the ‘static-line’, which automatically deploys the jumpers’ parachute after they’ve exited the aircraft.
