This is a response to the review from BELDIN.
There are no contact details for you so we cannot ask you why you think this!, in addition as we run a C208B and have the kit inspected by an advanced rigger every 6 months with a blank cheque for any works your review is somewhat suspect to say the least.

I offer you the opportunity to come down and see for yourself if your review is valid or merely comment by someone who has never been to LPS.

I have been skydiving for over 10 years in many countries accross the world and this is the most unprofessional and under equipped team I have encountered.

The guy that runs this would also have to be one of the rudest condecending idiots ever. Their equipment is questionable at the very least and the small plane they are using should of been retired many years ago. There were several break downs on the day I was there and according to other staff members there it is very common for the plane to break down and the day cancelled.

If you want to be ripped off and have a cowboy approach to learning to skydive go ahead book these guys and hope for the best.

London Parachute School has a small landing area but has plenty of extra fields for any off landing, the aircraft are small but with larger planes coming in 06 it should be a great year! DZ within 45mins from London! Staff and regular jumpers are friendly and approachable making LPS a very relaxed and all round great place for weekend skydiving!

Fantastic, it is only a small drop zone, but that is what makes it so friendly. Everyone knows everyone and they welcome new people in. I have been to other, larger dz's and this is the best.

Well what can I say, as the proverbial problem child just cannot get it student - these guys are brilliant, where the patience comes from I dont know, Its litterally a dz in the back of a van that opens on sunny days, but the feeling is so unlike larger dz's, you want to talk to someone walk up and say hello - no cliques and no polotics, why isnt it always like this?.
