Depending on the dropzone, they will probably have you go out solo with a coach or two.

Just one english hint - we use the letter V instead of your W. So the word you used, "wery much" is actually very much. My boyfriend is polish & he makes that mistake a lot. no worries, you'll do fine.

There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

Get licensed before you leave if possible. If licensed, you should just be treated as a visiting foreign jumper, that happens often. The fact that you intend to stay perhaps should not matter.

If you can't get licensed, bring your logs, and perhaps a short letter written in English from your instructor explaining his opinion of your progress.

If you have video of you exiting, flying, or landing, that would give instructors here some confidence.

Show up early to the DZ, be patient, humble, but confident. Be willing to spend some time to impress them with your knowledge, and show emergency procedures in a harness.

Study the USPA web site for stuff that you would need to know so that you can pass the A license exam right away (skydiver information manual - SIM):

Where are you going?

Good luck and welcome.

People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

Where do you live in Poland. You don't have you profile filled out.

[Polonus 0]

In Poland Im live in Kielce

Well hope you like it here. It's a bitch for first couple of years but after you get a good job and meet people it's great and since you skydive should be no problem meeting people. When you get settled visit Chicagoland Skydiving Center .I think there is only like 3 of us that are Polish. Erica is Polish but only by injection.

If somebody wonts to get something real extrim Im invide everybody to Poland and sugest jump from AN-2 airplane. Heh. For realy intrested I can send couple photos from my dropzone on e-mail.

[Pawel 0]

I did do a jump from AN-2 in Romania last year. But since the sport is a bit expensive there it's not a lot of fun jumpers there. But it's a cool plane to jump from, very roomie could stand up and jump inside.

[Polonus 0]

In Poland it's also expensive for Polish jumpers.
Thats why I haw 3 years experiens and only 60 jump's.

Eeehhhhh

Welcome to America! Your English is WAY better than my Polish!

Show your log book, be ready to jump with an instructor or a coach. How many of those 60 jumps are freefall? In other words, how many are static line and how many are freefall? That may make a difference.

You lucky, lucky, lucky person! I've been trying to get to America for over 10 years now. I enter the DV lottery every year and never win.

Congrats and all the best for your new life!
