Freefalling 90-year-old completes charity skydive
- Published
A 90-year-old former airborne gunner has helped to raise money for new hospital equipment by completing a freefall parachute jump.
John Landau, from Cheltenham, jumped from an aircraft last week, raising almost £5,000 for the Cheltenham and Gloucester Hospitals Trust, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and and his local regimental charity.
Mr Landau held the rank of lieutenant colonel when he left the military in 1978 and has now completed more than 100 jumps.
