  1. PM with your details please and the email you sent it to. I'll see what I can do to help
  2. Hey J hows life? No I am just answering from the UK, just wanted to pass on anythign useful to dad. I'm busy, working my butt off with the RAF :-) I can't really complain nothing like getting paid to fly! As soon as I can get time free over the skyfest period i'll be there. Kyle Thomas
  3. Tours are usually conducted in the early afternoon just after lunch. If you phone ahead Sunpath will tell you the best time to come, that way you will be able to spend more time checking the place out and getting measured. I would be interested to hear which email address people are using and subsequently not getting replies from?! Prompt service and replies are the norm from Sunpath :-) Kyle Thomas
  4. I would love to see that too if anyone has the details to PM. Kyle Thomas
  5. Hi Dom, How are you mate?? Well you know what can I say.......those photos thankfully never made it overseas!!!

See you soon Kyle Kyle Thomas
  6. Hi all, Bodyflight Frenzy (the junior 4-way team that is part of the sponsored Bodyflight Project) require a 4th team member! We recently lost our member flying point, if you would be interested in being part of the our team for the rest of this season and hopefully into the future please post interest here. Our next training camp is in Spain from the 3rd to 7th March which we would ideally like you to make. We are looking for someone with a decent skill level, who is fun loving and can be commited to the team. If you would like to be part of this great project and oppertunity I look forward to hearing from you. Kyle Thomas Frenzy Tail. Kyle Thomas

  8. I would say having flown 6 ish hours in Bedford so far that until last week i would have had no doubts that freeflying in Airkix would have been the better option, with Bedford exclipsing everyone else for 4 way. However after flying on sunday night I had the first taste of the power up grade. The Air was incredible and watching Fabian flying on his head all around the flight chamber (without the tunnel on 100% power) I would say that Bedford may now have the edge on this front too!! This may annoy certain individuals but im affraid I am increasingly finding it hard to think of going anywhere else to use a tunnel.....its only a matter of time before U.S teams start coming to England to use this giant. You have to try it to believe it. It is at times hard to bump a wall even if you try and with the air being constant and smooth right the way up to them and around the doors it causes little problems if you do find one. Thanks to Paul for bringing this dream to life! Dont take my word for it though as suggested previously go to both Bedford and Airkix as they are mearly 20 miles apart and make up your own mind! Kyle Thomas
  9. Agreed that the air would be great for freeflying. It seems faster and harder...... As I said I like both tunnels but in my opinion if you want to do some serious 4-way blocks the room at bedord makes it a whole lot easier when your a 6ft3 guy like me!!! Dont get me wrong I had a great 4-way going in Airkix too.....it just all depends on what you want personally! Kyle Thomas
  10. Well I also have a money saving tip!! Go to Bodyflight and you get free parking, a bigger tunnel, the same great service and if you buy that sort of time it can work out cheaper!! Not that airkix is a bad tunnel, I had a great time at both places!! Kyle Thomas
  11. I first turned up at Netheravon in May 2004. At the time I didnt have many jumps but I had seen alot of Drop Zones around the World having grown up in the skydiving world. At the time the DZ was having trouble with Manifest and things where slow (I think i managed two or three jumps in an entire day) but hey when I returned a year later things had changed!! As soon as I arrived there where people willing to jump. These are people who I had never really met before and just wanted to have fun. This is one of Nethers core features. The jumpers there want to help you out and make you feel welcome. Since the change of APA Management and a new Manifest system the DZ has got busier and faster. Dont let anyone tell you different! All DZ's have their bad days and yes Nethers does. The majority of the time however, it rocks, pure and simply. This DZ has everything you could want good people, excellent managment on both the military and Civilian side, high quality load organising, Multiple aircraft formation bigways, good coaching and great events. What more could you want? Not only that but the bar is cheap and the parties have to be some of the best around. Don't take my word for it check it out for yourself.
