So DZ in the UK have numbers instead of names eh?

I think 5 sounds like a good DZ!

Can't edit your poll, so you will have to start a new one.....

In no particular order, other then the ones in the top half generally have the better lift capacity:

1. Langar (nr Nottingham)
2. Netheravon (nr Salisbury)
3. Weston (nr Oxford)
4. Hibalstow (nr Lincoln)
5. Sibson (nr Peterborough)
6. Headcorn (nr Maidstone)
7. Chatteris (nr Cambridge)
8. Hinton (nr Oxford)


There are others, but they are smaller Cessna operations. Remember, all DZs have there own local culture and regulars who will always say their DZ is the best.... For maximum jumping with minimum hassle, I think Weston has to be the recommendation within relatively easy distance from London.

It may be worth allowing multiple answers to the poll so that if people have 2 places they want to recommend they can.

....and now I realise that you only had five options , but the top five I've listed I think is probably about right (although never jumped at Chatteris)
