tfasbend 0 #2 May 24, 2006 Hi, weather in Central Russia until late September - no problem, in August even hotter than in Europe, sometimes. They are right now building some accomodation at the DZ, check with their website www.aerograd.ru (available in English) for details and contacts. Transport Moscow-Kolomna (120 km) is possible by public transport (railway, bus), but you will want to stay at or near the DZ because transferring will cost you 2x2 hours a day. Better stay out there and drive into Moscow once for sightseeing. And everything, food accomodation, etc is much cheaper in Kolomna. The atmosphere at the DZ is very open and friendly, they have lots of foreign skydivers coming there and will receive you with open arms. A visa you will need, check with a specialized tourist agency or the Russian embassy in your country. Costs is difficult to guess, but with flight, visa, accomodation, food and jumps you better bring more than a shoestring, even if jumps are only 14 USD.
