Parachute drop in Nong Ki

[nookiebear]

Just how do the Thai's manage it?
Yesterday a very big parade ,the highlight of which was a parachute drop from a helicopter by the Air Force.
Well true to tradition they arrived about 45 minutes later than scheduled.............The helicopter managed to climb a couple of thousand feet,then disgorged the parachutists,two of whom managed to touch down nearly half a mile from the designated area & had to be retrieved by ambulance .........................I hate to think where they would have ended up if they were jumping from a decent altitude!!!!!!!!!!!
