| 3 New Attractions Installed at NDAC
Two Wessex helicopters sourced from the Royal Navy arrived at the
National Diving & Activity Centre on Wednesday 7 Nov. Also if you've
been to the site recently you can't of missed the 68 foot long,
30 foot high, 14 tonne BAE
146 Aircraft!
During the weeks following their arrival a great
deal of work was carried out, completely stripping out the aircraft
to make them diver friendly.
 We
are extremely pleased to announce that on Monday 17th December the
new attractions were carefully lowered into the water by a 100 tonne
crane. Helping us with the installation were Avon & Sommerset, Thames
Valley and South Wales Police Specialist Underwater & Search teams,
along with representatives from the Army, Navy and RAF. Keeping
a close eye on things were diving inspectors from the HSE and Local
Authority Enviromental Health Offiecrs from The Forest of Dean -
we even have the local paper turning up to cover the story!
 The
BAE Aircraft has been placed just West of the small 2 man diving
bell at a depth of approximately 25m. One of the Wessex hellicopters
has been placed NE of the Devon Aircraft at 25m and the other one
between the troop carrier and the cruiser at around the 13m mark.
Why not pop down for a visit and be one of
the first to dive these fabulous attractions. They are all marked
off with big white marker buoys so you can't miss them . . . unless
your navigation skills need a little brushing up!
