thelem 0 #1 July 25, 2004 I'm starting to organize next year's summer trip for the University of Portsmouth skydive club, and I'm just checking out the possible dropzone in sensible traveling distance (so, france or spain probably). The main requirements are to have english speaking instructors for AFF and RAPS (preferably from static line, but freefall students only is OK). We would hopefully be taking half a dozen AFF students and a similar number of RAPS students. Places I'm considering at the moment are Gap, Empuria, Lillo and Royan. What do you think of each of these dropzones (particularly Lillo)? Have you got any other suggestions? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ianwright 0 #2 July 26, 2004 look no further than empuriabrava. meets all your requirements. cheap and easy to get to, english speaking instructors. good, cheap accommodation. i recently did aff there and can safely say that all the above is genuine. you won't be disappointed.

thelem 0 #3 July 26, 2004 The main problem with Empuria is the lack of RAPS. They will give a discount to students on 15 second delays, but that if very frustrating for students who are on 10 second delays or just a couple of jumps from qualifing. I've also had a PM suggesting RAPA in Germany, has anyone got any opinions about that DZ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
