The jump school training cost is $1250. This includes WWII ADT dues, insurance, food (three meals a day), lodging (barracks style), aircraft fees (5 jumps), parachute supplies and other supplies. The school lasts 9 days, although usually everything is wrapped up in 8 days. The first five days are all ground training, and the last 4 days are focused on getting the required 5 jumps to graduate. All jumps are from a WWII C-47, and all the training is conducted at our headquarters, located in the WWII Sub-Depot of the Frederick Army Air Field in Frederick, OK.
The full information package regarding jump school is at:

We also are always in need of ground support members for those who aren't interested in jumping out of airplanes (such as myself). We do everything from help with the aircraft, provide living history displays (on the ground) at airshows and veterans reunions, show people around the hangar, and almost anything else you can imagine. Ground membership is $50. I'll be glad to visit with anyone with questions!
Regards,
Andy
