Parachuting

COPY Freefall is a rigorous 12-day parachute training program conducted at the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA), Colorado Springs, CO.

The course is comprised of strenuous physical training, conditioning, ground school and five freefall jumps from 4,500 feet. It is one of only two DoD - approved basic parachuting courses, the other being at Fort Benning, GA.

This is the only jump program in the world where students perform solo freefalls on their first jump. Freefall is one of the largest and definitely the safest student parachuting program in the world.

Completion of the course results in the awarding of the DoD Basic Parachutist rating, which gives the authority to wear the Parachutist Badge.
