Whether you come to us with some experience or are a complete novice to this exciting sport, we have something for everyone.

Owned and operated by professional skydiver Martin Harris, London Parachute School has been open since 1983 and is The Closest Skydiving Centre to London, with fast links from the M1, M5, M6 and M40 motorway systems.The "Drop Zone" is located at Lewknor which is on the Buckinghamshire / Oxfordshire borderless than 60 minutes from London and is probably the friendliest and most social skydiving club in the UK. There is always something going on from competitions, corporate events and charity fun-days, to progression courses and seminars for our club members.

Tandem Sydiving
Tandem skydiving is designed for those people who wish to try Skydiving for the first time, without the need for a time consuming course. Available from Tuesday to Sunday either for a morning or an afternoon report time, Tandem skydivers should normally budget a half day from start to finish. All Tandem skydivers will receive a personalised certificate upon completion

AFF
One step further, the AFF Level1 is for you. This course requires more commitment as you will need to budget two days in order to achieve your aim. The first day is spent in the classroom learning about all aspects of freefall and canopy control through a series of lectures and practical lessons. The second day you will be taking to the skies at altitudes up to 13,000 feet and feeling the rush of adrenaline as you take your first "leap of faith" into the skies above. All students will receive a personalised certificate and a log record of their jump on completion.

AFF Full Course
Convinced you want to become a Skydiver? Ready to take that leap and commit to an adrenaline infused lifestyle, fuelled by throwing yourself from an aircraft at heights in excess of two and a half miles? OK but next time you are sat in the office, not concentrating on work, looking out of the window and wishing you were at the "Drop Zone"..... Don't say we didn't warn you!

Static Line
This course uses the most up-to-date equipment in the world of parachuting. The square canopies used are highly manoeuvrable and are the same type used by many experienced jumpers, and is the first step in the BPA Category System. The parachute is opened automatically when you exit the aircraft, are fun to fly, and can give you very light landings.Your jump will be from 3,500 feet giving you plenty of time to have fun and enjoy the view.

The Vertical Wind Tunnel Skydive
On your first visit you will be taken into a classroom for your briefing by one of our experienced instructors. This will include watching a short video and learning the safety procedures whilst in the tunnel.

You will then progress to the kit up area where you will be given your helmet, goggles, ear plugs, flight suit and if required, training shoes. Your group will then go through to the tunnel ante-chamber where you will watch the people in the previous group finish their session. Then, when it becomes your turn to fly you take your place in the doorway. The instructor will stand in front of you and, when it is time, give you the signal to lean forward into the airflow. The instructor will take hold of your flight suit and hold onto you. YOU ARE NOW FLYING!
