Hi All,

I will be in Adelaide from February next year until May. I have been looking around on dropzone.com and some Australian websites, but I can't find a good place for skydiving near Adelaide. Places i found were mainly tandem skydive centers.

Anyone has some suggestions about a nice dropzone? And maybe some guys and girls around who I can jump with?!

Thanks!

Suz

Langhorne creek is the go its about an hour up the freeway towards murray bridge. they're running a cessna 206 and a 182 with 550 motors so both planes will go to 14k
usually quite a few fun jumpers floating around :)
