Default Parachute Badge with wings- at or from ?

I purchased an Army Book 64 at the weekend to a RA TA soldier who had qualified for the Parachute Badge with wings.The seller was telling someone that the soldier had done his training in Hastings ( see photo 3 ) but I was not aware of any parachute training being done in that location and then it occurred to me, the training was presumably done from a Hastings Aircraft ?

P.B.
