Ex-2425 Squadron Cadet, Ted Atkins, recently gave an impromptu talk on Skydiving, the latest of his many adventurous activities.
Ted is an ex-RAF Engineering Officer and Everest climber who went on to invent the World-renowned Topout Oxygen system for climbers based on flying helmets used by RAF pilots. The mask system has been taken up by Skydivers now so Ted has thrown himself into the sport by throwing himself out of aircraft! In fact Ted’s system was used in the recent world record breaking skydive that involved no parachute and just a net on the ground.
