I'll preface this by saying that I just started my AFF program, getting ready to jump level 2. After my first tandem at Skydive Chicago while visiting my daughter I decided that I had to experience another. Cleveland Skydiving Center is in my neck of the woods so I set it up. After two more tandems, I decided to pursue my "A" license. The folks here (staff as well as jumpers) have made me feel welcome from the onset, even with all of the questions that I have asked and the significant age difference between me and the majority of people here. I feel comfortable learning how to skydive here, that sums it up. There are plenty of weekends with turbine driven aircraft available and to me, it's an overall fun place to be. They get a high recommendation from me for anyone exploring skydiving.
