purplened 0 #1 December 29, 2005 I'm curious to know if anyone knows the difference between New Zealand Parachute Federation and New Zealand Parachute Industry Association. I"m trying to find out which one is the equivalent to USPA/CSPA, as I know some countries have more than one association, but generally speaking usually one is the 'official' and the other is a smaller association, usually due to politics etc. Please let me stress I'm not interested in politics, only in which is the 'official organization' of NZ, as I'm looking into info on visiting/working there. Thanks, Purple NedI'll try being nicer if you try being smarter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mccurley 1 #3 December 29, 2005 NZPF is the sport / fun jumping organization. they are the controlers of events such as the nationals, and to do do recreational jumps in NZ they are the people. The Parchute industry assoc. is the profesional organization and handle the Tandem Jumping industry here.As well as general for profit DZ operations. All FAI reresentation is by way of NZPF.Watch my video Fat Women http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRWkEky8GoI Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
