FineHavanas 0 #1 October 19, 2004 Just moved to England recently, and need to find a rigger in the London area to assemble my soon-to-receive brand new gear (Mirage G4/Safire2/PD-R/Cypres). Preferably someone with Mirage knowledge Any help? (Name/email-address/phone#/whatever) Oh, and any suggestions for where to jump? Thanx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bob.dino 1 #2 October 20, 2004 Can't help on the rigger front. The Brits I know that useta live in London mostly jump at Weston On The Green or Hinton. Details can be obtained via the BPA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanx There have been other posts for finding a rigger in London, a search may help on that one. My experience from having lived in London for 10 years is that although many skydivers live there, those who are riggers tend not to. The cost of property is just too high to have enough space... Skydivers living in London jump at many dropzones around the country, Weston, Hinton, Netheravon, Langar and Hibbalstow all require a car to get to, Headcorn can be reached by train and is actually closest to London of all those. Check out the dz reviews here. Posting on uk.rec.skydiving may also help find people and places to jump. tashDon't ever save anything for a special occasion. Being alive is a special occasion.

ernguru 0 #4 October 20, 2004 Hinton is less than 2 hours away by train from Marylebone and someone will normally pick you up at the closest station if you give them a call. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andybr6 0 #5 October 20, 2004 I have a Mirage [not as flash as yours though i am afraid ]. I jump at headcorn and Pete Sizer the CCI there has always been very helpful with any issues i have had with the container. ------------------------------------------------ "All men can fly, but sadly, only in one direction" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
