Hello folks thank you for reading my review.I live in Jax my name is Tom.Once you get to the office You have to buy your jump tickets.This is my only pro in the review it has great ac the office.Then you have to drive into the Airport on pot hole roads to the drop zone.Thats if someone comes to the airport gate to let you in.Dont drive your pristine car to this DZ.See they have a tent set up inside herlong airport some distance away from the office.No bathrooms however this DZ helps you become more close with nature hope you like going into the woods.The summers can be hot.No water bring your own.They fly a small cesna that can only reach 10k.Takes all day to jump unless they have alot of tandems.Greg is the owner, he also runs the worlds highest jumps out at the DZ past deland i think its called space coast near kendedy.Back a few years ago they had a larger aircraft here in jax.
This DZ is a huge safety hazard.Stay away from the rental gear.If you do rent check the reserve to seen when it was last packed.I rented gear and the reserve had not been packed in 2 months past the expire date..I also had a nice textbook horseshoe with their student V2 230 years back.I would have no hard feelings about this DZ.If the made major improvments.Drive out to palatka or maybe deland. Would not recommend any DZ's by this owner.

Nice people, great landing area. DZ is slowing growing but lacking facilities and a large aircraft for now.

Took all day to jump.Takes forever to get to 9000 in their small airplane.Not worth the wait go to deland.much better plus they have a resturant that serves some of the best food i have had at a dropzone.stay away from titusville i hear the owner greg owns skydive jacksonville.

I found the staff to be very friendly, knowledgeable and overall a great group. I had the most exhilerating time of my life. My instructor made me at ease instantly and I had a great time with him. The view was the best possible.
