Awesome, thanks for the info! New guy... Just finished AFF

I'm going to be up in VA for a few months and I'm looking to renew my A license, work towards my B and convince my buddies they should at LEAST do a tandem... What is a good DZ around Quantico? I've only been to a couple DZs but I don't have time or patience for a tandem factory (I did my AFF at one and it was a pain in the dick compared to say Deland, where I fell in love, or Raeford). I clicked through the "Dropzone" tab but I would prefer some up-to-date chatter vs a post from 4 years ago. Thanks ahead of time, for your time. SF New guy... Just finished AFF

Has anyone ever play this before? http://www.ramjetanvil.com/games/wingsuit/WebPlayer.html It loks like the developer has some other stuff in the works as well. New guy... Just finished AFF

I would go and find another DZ, I only have 37 jumps and have been to 3 DZ's one of them was a tandem factory and that was the least sociable but EVERYONE was still very cooperative, knowledgeable and friendly. Then I went to Deland, there's a lot of teams there and kind of cliqish but again, EVERYONE was very sociable and helpful. The next last DZ I went to was Raeford, I was there for the weekend and the next thing I knew I was going out to dinner, getting smashed out in town, house party and not to mention crashed a guys house. FIND A NEW HOME DZ! EDIT: He might not want to fill out his info so he doesn't get harrased. This IS an off subject New guy... Just finished AFF

From the initial phone call all the way through AFF the staff were enthusiastic, proffesional and informative. Even though I had no idea what I was doing the instructors guided me through and taught everything I needed to know at each level. They never got frustrated or lost proffesionalism. They made everything clear and easy to understand, slowly building on the basics. The entire staff was very friendly and talkative, asking about and commenting on the training, offering advice when they saw something to improve on. The aircraft was a king (not sure which one) and got to 18k pretty damn fast, the pilot was aslo friendly and experienced. Don't know much about what to look for in a plane yet. The landing area was great, right next to the other facilities. They have a bunkhouse, drink and snack machines, bathrooms, a small kitchen area, a viewing room I thinks it's called with couch and large tv. I don't know what other DZs have but it was sufficient here. Coaching was excellent, clear and easy to understand. I gave a 3 for weather but that is not in the hands of the DZ then decided to put a 4 since it is right next to the Kennedy Space Center and based on the pictures on the walls they jump during shuttle launches I gave an overall rating of 5, I have nothing to compace Skydive Space Coast to but I hope I have as mich fun in my next DZ as I did here.
