1,000 Jumps.

via British Forces News.

A pilot with 845 Naval Air Squadron who has clocked up 1000 flying hours has made it a double celebration with his 1000th jump.Lt Will Major is no stranger to skydiving, widely regarded as the ultimate adrenaline rush, because he's a member of the elite Royal Navy Parachute Display Team - the RN Raiders.He has jumped from various fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters, including the Sea King HC4 of the Commando Helicopter Force.He said: “After my first jump I was totally hooked, although I have to confess that it takes a few jumps to get to grips with the initial apprehension. However once you are out of the door and in the air it is a truly thrilling feeling."Leaving an aeroplane at 12,000 feet might be considered utter madness but I’ve years of experience with this sport and providing you focus on what you are doing it remains a very safe activity. I’ve had the privilege of representing the Navy at some fantastic events, and standing in the door of a helicopter about to jump is mind blowing.”The RN Raiders normally jump at the parachute centre in Netheravon, Wiltshire which is home to the Army Parachute Association and base for the Royal Navy and Royal Marines Sport Parachute Association.

I don't know what to make of this.  I remember some guys with the 82nd that would get in a bunch of jumps at the end of the month when people were trying to stay on jump pay, but 1000 jumps seems like quite a feat.
