You will only have one intructor with you for this jump. The freefall
learning objectives are to relax and fall stable in
an arched position; maintain altitude, heading, and body
position awareness; control your
freefall unassisted; turn in a controlled manner (starting
and stopping), and wave off at 5000 ft and deploy
the main parachute.
