Dutchboy 0 #4 April 16, 2001 Most any decent sized DZ could help you out with this. My home DZ, Skydive Atlanta, is open every day except Mondays. A couple of my friends have gone through the entire training in only 3 days of jumping before. As somebody else said, there are lots of DZ's that could work for you. Figure out where you want to go in the US and go from there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slotperfect 7 #7 April 17, 2001 If I were in your shoes, it would depend on two things: 1) DZ atmosphere and 2) climate. 1) Are you looking for the big, happening DZ where they have big airplanes and lots of people? Or are you looking for small and quiet with smaller airplanes but a "home-ier" feel?2) In your case I think I would choose what general area of the States I wanted to spend time in, then search for a DZ. USPA's Drop Zone Directory http:// www.uspa.org/ will help you there.My home DZ is mid-size, but has two Twin Otters, a CASA 212, and two Cessna 182s http:// www.skydiveraeford.com/ call the number on the website and ask for Brian Quick.There is another good sized operation an hour and a half up the road http:// www.carolinaskysports.com/ and they have more big airplanes than you can shake a stick at: CASAs, Otters, King Airs.Let me know if I can do anything else to help!Respectfully,SP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
