My 24th tandem skydive @SkydiveLangar
Something a little different. Instead of the camera flyer landing to film my landing he deployed his canopy first and filmed me whilst I was beneath the canopy. Filmed my landing from the sky. Also had a staff member follow us out of the plane,

Had to do something a little special for my 50th tandem skydive. So I had two camera flyers and the same instructor who took me on my first tandem skydive. Thanks to Jamie, my instructor and Dan and Pete my camera flyers. Huge thanks to @SkydiveLangar for making it such a memorable day.

If you look carefully at this video you'll notice there are two planes involved.The last person who was about to board notice the plane had a flat tyre so we had to change planes.

Freefall from my 60th tandem skydive. Loved the exit from the plane and how my camera flyer captured the plane flying away into the distance.

A return visit to @SkydiveLangar . I added a 2nd camera flyer. The reason for this is to show the incredible work they do whilst they're filming. The idea came to me after watching tandem skydive promotional videos.

Another visit to @SkydiveLangar yesterday. My camera flyer suggested that he would follow me out, rather than being on the outside of the plane. it worked well.

      When the instructor cross their arms it’s a signal that they’re going to deploy there parachute. Some will just do a 3-2-1 countdown with their fingers.

      I’d have to go abroad to do it due to British Skydiving Regulations. Course is a week in length, think the intensity would be too much for me. Could complete the course in the uk. Just wish I was younger and I would have seriously considered going for it.

      I’m over the age of 55 to start my A.F.F in the U.K, British Skydiving Regulations. I could start it abroad and complete it in the u.k, that would be at the discretion of the chief instructor at the Drop zone. It an intense coarse abroad, the 18 jumps are usually done with 7-10 day. More than happy with my tandems. First one was on 29th July 2021. Next one is due on Sunday, weather permitting. Hopefully I’ll be have the same instructor for my 50th as I did for my 1st one.

    You have to play the lottery if you manage to jump with Goskydive..... Today after driving 2 hours to get to their airfield and 2 hours back to London, they CANCEL IT because of bad weather. After spending 10 hours on the airfield getting sunburn ...... First it was the clouds (clouds, bad weather and I got sunburn), then it was the wind speed (check online windspeed was under 20 knot and they were saying oo its more then 20). After they cancel asked for refund "WE DON`T DO REFUNDS". Well guess what you will do from now on. If they cancel on you and YOU don't want to reschedule AND MAYBE jump next time, report the transaction to your bank for services not RECEIVED (and that is the case). I don't get why people don't defend their rights and get their money back if they literary make people come back 2 times (there were people coming back for second time and then got canceled)....
