About Us:

If you have ever wanted to jump out of a perfectly good airplane and experience the feeling of flying - you have come to the right place! 

We jump every weekend (weather dependent, it's Scotland after all) at our local drop zone, Strathallan Airfield. It's located about a 30 minutes’ drive away, near Gleneagles and Auchterarder. We share it with Glasgow, Strathclyde and Dundee University as well as the other members of the drop zone.

There are a couple of ways to get involved with our club:

If you like to take things slowly or maybe just want to jump from a plane no more than once in your life, a Tandem Jump might be your cup of tea. This is where you are attached to a tandem instructor and your jump will usually be from 10,000 feet with 30 seconds of freefall, costing £240 (excl. video). So let the professional do the work and just enjoy the views!

If you prefer jumping straight into the deep water or see skydiving as a potential hobby, we'll book you in for the Static Line Course. This is a full day course that teaches you everything you need to know before your make your first jump on your own. During the jump you will be monitored by a highly experienced instructor and your parachute opens for you. All you have to do is JUMP!!! After this jump you will have started down the road of becoming a qualified skydiver.  Becoming a qualified skydiver takes as little as 20 jumps, working your way through the category system.
