I found out yesterday that the only DZ in this country hasn't got a free spot for classes untill September. Knowing we only have 50ish non-rainy days here... grrrr.

I don't drive, so going further is not an option... looks like I'll be doing a few tandem rides while waiting.

Man, it would be freak'n sweet to have that much business...all of those students to train. All the instructors busy all the time. That would be cool.


Sorry you can't get jumping through the student progression until May. That'll give you a chance to do a couple of tandems for fun and training, though. Atleast you've got that.

Is there anyways you could hang at the DZ and learn stuff on the ground? Maybe become a packer or something like that?

Aye, it's a pretty small DZ (well...can't compare, since this is the only one I've been to so far)... Spent the whole day there watching others jump and getting sunburns. I've seen only one plane (4 seater) and two instructors.

It's a purdy small country too

Good luck to ya. I hope you can get there soon. Keep checking back, maybe someone will cancel.

Good english skills, by the way...I wish my spanish was as good as your english.

Cool. Still doesn't mean you can learn stuff around the DZ and do some chores around the DZ for jump money.

Spanish? My girl's portugese...but I don't think she likes it when we mix 'em up hehe.(hey don't pick on me if i didn't get it... I just woke up!)
I grew up in Asia, then spent some time in the US (KY) and more in southern England... I tend to mix the languages sometimes... can't realy take any credit for it, it just happened.

Talk to the person in charge of training and see if they will call you if someone is unable to keep their reservation. It may be short notice but at least you'll be able to do your AFF sooner.

You are in a puny little country right now, but with easy access to other countries (using the train) where you would be able to jump. I'm sure you'll find a more active DZ relatively closeby if you look.

The opinions expressed herein are not necessarily those of my employer, not necessarily mine, and probably not necessary.

Sorted since yesterday evening.

I'm taking a week off & getting my AFF classes mid July in Spa, found a hotel nearby with a pool, sauna etc...
I'll then be able to do jumps from Wiltz after I get that licence (if I understood correctly?).

Cheers!
