Dropzone Reviews posted by Zennie


  1. I didn't want to write a review until I had been to a few other DZs for comparison purposes.

    This is my home DZ. I trained here and have done the vast majority of my jumps here. The facilities and people are wonderful. Steve has worked very hard at providing top rate facilities and his work shows. The hangar is huge, as is the landing area. The packing area is also large & air conditioned.

    What keeps me coming back are the people. Everyone is friendly and whether your thing is freefly, RW or both, it's very easy to hook up with others and jump. There are many excellent big-way RW organizers, such as Scotty Carbone & Tom Jenkins. And of course no review would be complete without noting Scotty Carbone's most excellent food at the Cutaway Cafe.

  2. This is the *ahem* precursor to the second time I've been to a dropzone other than the one I learned at.

    I went to Indianapolis to visit my parents and decided to try out Aerodrome on the recommendation of a fellow DZ.com-er.

    The staff is extremely friendly and safety conscious. I was there on a Thursday and things were kind of slow, but everyone I met and jumped with were really nice and very accepting of me. I didn't detect any hint of sky-godness in the people I met.

    It was also a special day because I brought my Dad to do his first tandem. He had an absolutely wonderful experience. We both had complete confidence in the equipment and competence of the staff.

    The airport is huge. I can't imagine landing off. Nice facilities. Big hangar with a large packing area. It's not air-conditioned, but then summers in Indiana are nothng like summers in Houston! :)

    If you're in the area, definitely check them out!
