Parachute Test

Today we went to the field behind our school to test out our parachutes. Photographer Darren Kinsella kindly allowed us to use his quadcopter to drop our parachutes from a height. This was originally meant to happen yesterday, Wednesday, but due to strong winds and poor weather conditions we were unable to carry out this task and it was postponed. In retrospect, it was a very successful affair. We concluded that Julia's parachute was the best and that will be the one we use on the day.

A special thanks to Darren for allowing us use of his quad-copter
