MISSION 50

Parachute Mobile Mission 50 is scheduled for April 25, 2026. Wow! Our 50th mission. Our first mission was November 19, 2009. It’s been a blast and we hope that we have inspired you to try new things in whatever hobbies you might be involved in.

Mark, AF6IM; Dmitrii, KN6MMW; and Rob, KC6TYD, are back to make QSO’s with you. If everything goes as planned, Mark and Dmitrii will start the day off with 2 meter jumps on 147.570 MHz, and then Rob will make an HF jump on 14.250 MHz.

We hope to get the first skydiver up in the air by 10:30 a.m. Monitor 147.570 for Parachute Control, who will be situated near the summit of Mount Diablo keeping everyone up to date with the mission progress and answering questions. We will also post updates on the website and on our page.

Each skydiver will be APRS equipped and can be tracked by searching their callsigns respectfully, or position your favorite APRS map over Byron Airport in Byron, CA.

We will also provide live streaming video during each jump as well as some ground preparation feeds. Check back for a Zoom link to join in.

If you make a contact with a skydiver please be sure to email us at [email protected] and let us know which skydiver it was and the time of the contact. This will ensure that you will receive your one of a kind QSL card.

Please feel free to post and share the attached flyer.
