    Experience the incredible thrill of skydiving from an indoor environment. With a 120 mph wall of air, the wind tunnel can support body weight with ease, giving a true sensation of freefall without the need to jump out of an aircraft. Begin with a full safety briefing from an instructor before being issued a specialist flight suit and stepping into the wind tunnel. Once lifted into the air, the instructor will provide guidance through two sensational 120 second sessions of body flying. For some lucky people, the instructor will hop onto the air flow and demonstrate some impressive freefall acrobatics. The session will conclude with a debrief and you'll also receive a DVD of the flight to take home as a memento.

    • A wind tunnel with two 120 second sessions of free flight
    • Try out different moves and positions with an instructor's help
    • Fly at either Milton Keynes or Manchester
    • Take home a personalised flying DVD

    Once you get the hang of it.......you'll not experience anything like it! I'd compare it to deep sea diving, where everything seems to be in slow motion...but it isnt! Ladies will need to wear long hair tied, as the strength of the windforce plays havvock with knots! (Conditioner at the ready) But dont be put off.....JUST DO IT!! Thanks Mum & Dad for a superb birthday treat.

    Outstanding

    Following sky diving last year I really wanted to do more. Body flying is the next best thing without the expense and CO2 emissions, plus you get sooo much longer flying! I would definitely recommend it to all age groups however it is a lot harder than you imagine so expect your muscles to be sore the next day. I will be back for lots more!

    Thrilling!!

    The staff on the day are excellent and really give you confidence for your first flight and you can progress really quickly to being able to control yourself while flying with really simple instructions. I will definitely be going again. A must-try for all adrenaline junkies.

    When our instructor Jean Charles introduced himself he immediately put everyone at ease, even though it was an excited atmosphere, not pensive. We then went to get kitted out and you could feel the charged atmosphere. Everyone trouped up to the flight area, all buzzing with excitement. We all sat awaiting our turns and everyone applauded each other on completing the first session - it was as good as I was expecting. The second session was even better and Jean Charles finished off with a unbelievable display of acrobatics that stunned everyone. I would highly recommend everyone from 10-65 to try it. FANTASTIC!
