Hi there, North London Parachute centre is my local dropzone, I have spent several years jumping here now. Many of the reviews on this sight are totally unfare as they are mainly to do with weather, (wind or cloud base) If you are a tandem student, this drop zone is very busy however the proffesionalism of the instructors and video work is outstanding. As I understand they carry out more tandems here than anywhere else. The staff have always got time for any questions posed to them. Rightly so the weekends and wednesdays get extremely busy, thats why a first come first jump policy exists, when initially booking you are told about this. With regards to students whether it be RAPS or AFF this dropzone offers excellent tuition and I have seen many people graduate through the system. Some of which are competing at high standards, or instructors themselves. Finally if you are a student and wish to progress you need to understand that certain weather conditions apply to you for your own safety and therefore you may remain on the ground whilst tandems continue jumping. If this annoys you take up golf as this isnt the sport for you, or jump overseas as the weather is in the hands of the gods, not the staff at NLPC. Before you knock this place come and jump here and enjoy the use of the outstanding facilties, Wind tunnel ect. If not your loss. Safe jumping!
