Belgium Dropzones

Recommended Posts

We're in Belgium to use to AirSpace tunnel and just seeing where out best options would be to head to for jumping during the week. We are a 3-way team looking to jump as much as possible. If there a 182 dz around that would run fun jumpers?

I've searched all the DZ's on the database here and Spa looks like the biggest, but not sure about week day jumping? All appear to be between 100 and 130km from the tunnel so not fussed about driving every day.

Also, where is the best place to head on the weekend to get as many jumps as possible?

hello, dz the only one that I know that is open during the week of spa, others are just for the weekend, a really good is to Hoevenen in Antwerp, the visuals are gorgeous and the jump is cheap, operates a Cessna 206 Soloy . there are also schaffen with a cessna caravan which is pretty cool, and Namur (Temploux) which is very good, with a pilatus porter. Here are the links:

Skydive Spa opens every day of the week now, except Tuesday. They have a Supervan and a Caravan, so when there is lots of people they are able to put quite a few loads per day.

Cerfontaine is closer, like 30 km or so. It is from the same owners as Spa, but smaller. They have a Caravan.

Being in Charleroi I think these two are your best options.

You are right, Cerfontaine does not operate during the week.

Namur is not operating right now, as far as I know, right?

Thanks everyone.

Any ideas on how many slots the soloy 206 needs to fly? May be worth just covering another slot if it will fly with 4?



they need at least 5 to run... but there are always people who wants do do solo's
Do or do not, there is no try
