Morning everyone, just a reminder that club jumping won't start until 4pm today and also to remind you that this coming weekend 8th and 9th September we will only have one aircraft, so please be patient with us!! Normal service should be resumed very soon.
Hi everyone, please note that whilst we have just one aircraft at the moment we won't start club jumping until 4pm tomorrow (Wednesday). Hopefully we will have two aircraft again in the next couple of weeks! Look forward to seeing you.
Can it really be a whole week since the AFPC Presentations? In case you're having withdrawal symptons here are a selection of pictures from last Friday's event!
FAO all Military APA Members - The military jumping week and Speed 8 Competition 24-28 Sept is postponed until further notice.
A quick reminder that this coming weekend 1-2 Sep we will be running a one aircraft operation.
September FS organised events. There will be 2 Groups running; for more experienced BigWay jumpers looking to develop your skills further, and recently got your FS1 + 50 jumps and looking to learn or build on the fundamentals of BigWay.

The met for today is cloudy and getting quite breezy by the afternoon. Not suitable for students but we are hoping for some gaps for experienced jumpers. Check out Boscombe Met Office for the latest updates.
The met for Monday 27 August is looking cloudy and a bit breezy. The DZ will be open but the Skyvan will be cancelled. We will invite it back when the weather improves!!!!
The met for Sunday 26 August is heavy rain and strong winds so the DZ will be closed for the day. Check out Boscombe Met Office for the latest weather updates.🤨
Almost ready for prize giving for the 19th Armed Forces Parachute Championships. Despite the mixed summer weather we got there at the eleventh hour! See some of the results of a great week's jumping. Thanks to Lucy Smith-Wildey for these great pics!

Good news! The Skyvan is coming to Netheravon for the Bank Holiday weekend. For those who haven't had the pleasure of jumping off a tail gate, now is your chance!!
The Skyvan is flying in to support the Nethers events over the weekend;spare capacity will be available to our regular APA club jumpers.
It's that time again! ACHIEVERS: Let me have your name for the BPA magazine. If you have gained a new licence, sticker, or jump number in the last three months, let me know by Monday please, so that we can add you to the list. Thank you!
Wednesday 15th,
As the hangar is empty it looks like you have all received the message about the bad weather. But just in case you didn’t, we are now confirming that we will not be doing any more jumping this afternoon due to high winds and cloud
Thanks guys.
What an amazing experience! First time for me and have definitely got the bug! All of the staff were lovely and friendly. Paddy was a great instructor; very professional and reassuring throughout. I will definitely be back!
What a fab experience I had yesterday. My first ever tandem skydive and I absolutely loved it. Thankyou to my instructor Dean who looked after me and made me laugh. So glad I had it filmed. Thankyou, I will be back. X
What a amazing experience from start to finish. A special thanks to matty who was my instructor he made me feel at ease and I felt very calm knowing I was in safe hands . He was a lovely man who I can't thank enough for the fantastic experience. I'm all ready looking at booking again . Thanks team for making my experience so special.�
Visited on Sunday 27th August 2017 for a tandem skydive. Loved every moment of the day and was very well looked after. Special thanks to my instructor Dan and to Simon the camera man for recording an amazing Video! Great place for a skydive and the weather was perfect too. Thanks for helping me to raise a great amount of money for my chosen charity The British Heart Foundation in memory of my mother-in-law Sally Lane who passed away from a heart condition in February this year. Keep up the great work guys, I'm sure this won't be my last jump :-)
The most amazing experience of my life. Thanks Mike and team �
Thank you so much to Mike and the rest of the team at Netheravon for the most amazing experience of my life! From start to finish the service was friendly, warm, efficient with just the right amount of banter � I felt completely safe the whole time and didn’t doubt for a second that I was in the most highly skilled hands you could wish to find when hurtling through the clouds at 120mph!!!
Thanks again and now I’ve got the bug I’ll totally be back again! Highly recommend to anybody wanting to sky dive!
One of the best days of my life! The people were extremely nice, super professional and everything ran smoothly the whole day. Cannot recommend it enough! My tandem skydive was great and anyone who hasn’t done it before - do it here. They talk you through the whole process and are there to support you all the way. �
My son and hubby did a sky dive together on his 16th birthday on 6th may. We were blessed with amazing weather and He absolutely loved it! We splashed out for the video, that i would definitely recommend! He had a really special memorable birthday! Thank you so much so the guys for making it such a special occasion.
Just completed our second trip to Netheravon with Surrey Army Cadets, completing their ground training and static line jumps. Staff are always friendly and helpful and the place has a great atmosphere. Thanks for a great weekend
