Experienced Jumpers

We are open every day for experienced jumping provided the weather will allow us to jump. Whether you like RW, freeflying, CRW,or accuracy, we have it all at Skydive Greene County. We have many jumpers who have been around for awhile and some new faces as well this year-we would love to have you be one of those!

We have a main landing area of over 5 acres and an additional 10 acres as a secondary with hundreds of acres for safe outs if you do happen to land off the airport. Please ask to receive a complete area briefing if you are new to the dropzone area.

Our office/Clubhouse building is the center of our DZ. In this building you will fill out all waivers, purchase jump tickets(See ticket prices below), manifest for loads and check in after landing. Located in this building is our restrooms, showers, and an additional TV viewing area. This is also where all students will undergo their training. Our rigging loSGC Landing area and outsft is also located in this building. We have a hanging harness trainer system available for all jumpers, as well as rental equipment if you need a rig. In addition we have a full gear store will everything from goggles to canopies to t-shirts to baby onesies! See Kenny for details.

Our packing hanger easily will allow 40 people to pack at the same time. We provide rig racks for your convenience. In addition, we have packers who can pack your gear if you so desire. Located in the hanger are boxes of rubber bands, pull up cords and a canopy rack for canopy inspections. Limited power outlets are provided for charging your video camera or other small items. Also located in our packing hanger is a TV viewing area to debrief after your latest jump, a VCR is available on a as needed basis. Limited numbers of storage areas are available on a seasonal renting schedule. We have additional packing tents we get out for the busy boogies too. Located in front of our hanger is a creeper pad large enough for multiple 4 way teams to practice. Contact manifest for more details on lockers or any of our facilities.

Lastly, if you are hungry or thirsty, visit Kenny in his concession stand, located on the far side of the clubhouse near the hanger.

 Our primary aircraft this season will be a  Super Otter and a Cessna 182. The Super Otter holds 22 jumpers and gets to altitude in under 15 minutes. The large side door, extra long floater bar and a super large camera step make this plane one of the most desirable type of plane in skydiving. This particular otter is the plane that the 2003 USPA Nationals was held out of. The Cessna 182 is used on slower days, since it only holds 4 jumpers, and when jumpers want to work on canopy flight skills.
