Contents: Covering Note. List of contacts in Australian Parachute Federation. List of Australian Parachute Clubs. Greetings SkyNetters, After posting my request for info on Californian skydiving, I received a number of replies with lots of helpful information. A number of people also asked me about Australian skydiving... Australian Skydiving is alive and well. Here is a complete list of all the contacts in the controlling body, the Australian Parachute Federation, and a complete list of registered parachute clubs.
