Policy

It is the responsibility of members to organise their own travel to and from the drop zone (Course Weekends excluded), however, there will often be someone driving who can offer a lift

Members can be reimbursed for train travel to the drop zone up to a maximum of £10 per round trip

If driving to the drop zone, a minimum of £10 per person (flat cost for both one way and return) is payable to the driver directly unless otherwise agreed between all parties 

If driving other members to the drop zone, a driver can claim, from the club, up to a maximum of £10 for fuel per round trip on top of monies directly from members

If driving members for a course weekend the full fuel cost can be claimed by a driver

Members of the club can access the kit inventory including parachute rigs, helmets, altimeters, jumpsuits, and goggles
