I received S/L training there and everyone is very helpful and will answer any and all questions that you may have. The owner Jim West is one of the easiest going men I have met in a while and everyone that works there is very professional. I would recommend this place to anyone and I have given cards to everyone I know. So stop thinking about it go and jump at The Legend Skydive Green County

SGC has been my home DZ for a little over a year now and it has the most friendly staff around. The landing area is very large, the owners are the nicest and hardest working DZ owners that I have ever met. Their gear is top notch and it's just a great place to be. The regular crowd will jump with people of all ages and experience levels. Greene County rocks!!!!!

Unfortunately I didn't have much time to spend here and would of loved to see more of it but I only had a short time.
I emailed SGC asking them if i could jump as i'd left my logbook at The Farm in Georgia. Within a couple of hours I had a reply telling me they had spoke to The Farm and they looked forward to my arrival. They went the extra yard there and i was very impressed.

I arrived and i didnt have my packing card saying my reserve was in date (i was a real pain in the arse for them) and that wasnt a problem. Jim the DZO gave me free gear rental.

Paper work filled out and I was on a 20 minute call. Excellent.

I got 13.5k in the Otter then went up for a quick hop n pop in a lovely litte Cessna 182.

Super friendly people and I will definately be back there before I head back home to England.

Everyone at SGC has been very kind with advice and answering questions. It's easy to get coached jumps. As a new jumper,It's nice to feel a little looked after. With a good chill environment and friendly professional staff,whats' not to like? Blue Skies

I started jumping Xenia this year after jumping Greensburg last year. I had some concerns about safety at Greensburg....
My first day at Xenia someone landed outside of the normal landing pattern(into traffic) he wasn't off the DZ before the safety instructor had his ear. It was refreshing,encouraging, and professional.
As a young jumper it is easy to get a coached jump and very reasonably priced($65.00 includes your lift ticket).
The staff are friendly, outgoing, and open. Overall a great experience, start to finish. Don't miss the opportunity to visit. The owner, who has to be in his mid to late sixties, is still an active jumper...and great story teller.

Blue Skies

I have been jumping and hanging out at Greene county for a few years, and I must say it feels like home. Whether it is your first jump or 500th people are nice and willing to answer any questions you have. The staff is knowledgable and friendly. The fleet of aircrafts is great, usually having a CASA or Twin Otter flying. Large covered packing are is nice too. This DZ is highly recommended!

A few days ago I made my first jump since 1967. Yes, I'm an old bastard. I found the SGC organization to be just what I waw looking for... highly competent, well organized, and very friendly. On my jump, the CASA 212 was jammed with young (mostly) and old (just a couple of us)who were looking for another great experience and found it. When you're ready to take the leap, you can't go wrong here.
