Dropzone Reviews posted by Lok


  1. I start Skydiving and involved in Skydiving activities with Langar skydiving center the last 5 years, the instructors are superb, the best people and skydivers out there.
    My personal instructor make heroic efforts to learn me skydive properly and keep me in the skydiving.
    All the people are welcome in Langar to learn to skydive.

    Otherwise for the experienced jumpers or studend parachutist,

    In Langar you will find:
    1) Many of the BEST AFF, Tandem FS-FF Instructors-coach-organizers-camera team not in U.K, but in the WORLD.
    2) Best and most reliable skydiving aircrafts.
    Skyvan, Beech99, helicopters on boogies.
    3) BEST pilots.
    4) Best packers with 10000ands of pack jobs.
    5) Best Riggers, skydiving shop available, with everything you need.
    6) Free coaching in FS,CRW,FF,skysurfing,wingsuit etc
    7) Some of the best prices in U.K and slightly more expensive jumptickets than France and Spain......but this is acceptable through Langar is one of few full time skydiving centers in U.k and must be cope with the strange (not bad) British weather during winter.
    Winter only, from March until November, the people at Langar jump practically every day.
    Then again accommodation in bunkhouse is nearly free and Bar and cafe shop is the cheapest you can find when in France and Spain you must pay a lot more for accommodation.
    You must pay for coaching as well and you must pay your airtickets so at the end you pay much more for your jumps ( even in France and Spain jumptickets are 2-5 euros cheaper than Langar).
    And I forget, Jump tickets in Friday are just £15 or 22 euros,maybe the cheapest you can find in European Union.
    8) All jumps from at least 13,000ft but normally are from 14,000-15,000ft.
    9) Midweek even with 5 jumpers in the Dropzone, the Caravan goes up, you can easily make 10+jumps per day if you have the money, and there are a few more people in the dropzone.
    By the way, with 5-7 people on board, Caravan goes to 15,000ft at no time at all .
    10) Not mandatory AAD if you are B certificate and above.
    11) Welcome all students, for other drop zones or from USA, Spain,France etc.
    12) Incredible landing area
    13) No other air-activities in the area
    14) No restrictions in altitude, higher than normal jumps can be organized any time and this is one reason Langar is the Home of British formation record Brit-100.
    15) Best safety record for a so busy dropzone.....top safety, instructors and ground personnel check jumpers all the time.
    16) Friendly people around.
    17) Nice weather!!!!!!! if you don't bother to have the incredible fun to jump through or around the clouds ( some times).

    Too bad I am leaving in 6 weeks this country.
    I do my best to come back at least on the boogies and make 100s of jumps at this dream place called Langar.
