Based at Tilstock Airfield and the home of Manchester Skydivers in 1964 and Manchester Freefall Club in 1967. The Parachute Centre can give you the experience of a lifetime sky diving event or guide you through the system to qualify as a skydiver.
Located in Whitchurch, North Shropshire. We are the closest Parachuting or Skydiving Facility to the West Midlands, Wolverhampton, Birmingham, North and Central Wales, going to the North West of England to Merseyside, Wirral, Liverpool and Manchester and east to Stoke on Trent and Derby.
Choose your skydiving experience from the options below.
After a short brief, enjoy the flight in our aircraft to 10 thousand feet, checking out the views on the way up before sliding to the edge of the door attached to one of our Tandem Instructors. You freefall for 25-30 seconds before the parachute opens at about 5000 feet above the ground. Enjoy the cruise down to the landing area opposite the club house.
If you want to be in control of the parachute and jump out of our aircraft from over 3 thousand feet, steering the parachute down by yourself, maybe this for you. After a days tuition you will be ready to jump on your own.
Charity Tandem Skydives or Static Line Parachute Jumps.
Skydiving gives you a sensation you cannot explain to those who haven't skydived. You have to experience it to understand.
You can imagine the sensation of sitting on the edge of the aircraft and falling earth bound. You imagine it being similar to driving over the edge on a big dipper or in a fast car over a hump-back bridge and the weird sensation you get in your stomach.
Skydiving is nothing like that. Find out here, Skydive at The Parachute Centre. The ultimate Experience ;-)
