Para's display over the at Siverstone F1 GP weekend

Okay, technically I'm not very happy with these photo's so they are in a separate thread in here simply because they are intended to give an idea of some of what was on offer, not to show I'm a terribler photographer (mind you...).

The manuever in shots #3 and #5 is also done by the US Leap Frog Team (Navy SEALs), and I recall them (could have wrong team perhaps) having a mishap once when the chutes got tangled a few years ago. The guys (and girls) that do that sort of stuff sure have my respect.
