- Experience the sensation of Skydiving without jumping from a plane!
- Step into 120pmh winds in a specially designed Wind Tunnel

Indoor skydiving? That's right, you turn a wind tunnel that could be used for testing the aerodynamics of an F1 racing car upside down, step into the airflow and you are skydiving. It's an amazing concept that allows you to taste the thrill of freefall in a completely safe environment. Our Learn to Fly course is a comprehensive course that will give you a total of ten minutes flying time during which you will master a number of different skydiving techniques and get them ticked off in your log book, by the end of this course you can expect to have more diverse freefall skills than a newly qualified skydiver! You will receive a personalised DVD to remember your day with.
Experience Content
There are ten basic levels of flight and this course of ten minutes flight time will give you plenty of time to master them all and have them ticked off on your log book. After this you will be starting more complex work and you’ll soon be flying like a pro. There is a class for each level you are trying to achieve where you will receive a detailed briefing and you then get to put it all into practice in the tunnel. At the end of the course you should have completed all ten basic flight levels. You will almost certainly have more diverse freefall skills than a newly qualified skydiver. If you have already signed up to a skydiving course specific routines can be added into your flight in order to help. This course is highly recommended for anyone wishing to take up skydiving and is guaranteed to save you money as you will complete your skydiving course in fewer jumps owing to your freefall skills. Before you leave pick up your DVD.

Duration
You will have in total 10 minutes of flight time. Bear in mind that 2 minutes in the tunnel is similar to 3 tandem skydives so 10 minutes in the tunnel will give you plenty of time to master the skills. This course is not normally completed in one day.

All specialist equipment including flight suit, helmet, goggles and pads are provided by the centre.
Please wear tight, lace-up trainers (or skate shoes). In the event that your shoes are unsuitable the centre will hire you a pair.
