I thought there used to be some public clubs/ schools up near Clarksville TN/ Hopkinsville, KY close to Fort Campbell.

Lots of Airborne types up thata way for some reason.

Mayhaps someone up there could help ya out.

I did a quick search and found this place which shouldn't be too far away from you.

Tennessee Skydiving, LLC at Tullahoma

This one and also some others listed here; Tennessee Skydive Tennessee Skydiving Tennessee Centers

Good luck

"I don't care how many skydives you have, until you've steppped out of a plane at 1250 feet, in pitch black, with 90 pounds of gear, and 35 pounds of parachute, you're still a f#*$ing leg."

Just kidding, I've been interested in skydiving for a while now.

Especially since I can't get an airborne slot....

Looks like we need to set up a TGO skydive meet.

I have just the unit for you as sson as you are E5/E6 and able to reclass to 37F without lossing your reup bonus. We are airborne and send people to reclass and jump school.

I'll set you up with training, uniforms, and jumps with pay, as long as you willing to sign a contract for Uncle Sam. But seriously,

www.tennskydive.com and www.skydivesmokymountains.com were some places the guys at my unit used.

I've jumped in Tullahoma. Nice place nice people and they now have larger aircraft. Jumped in Cartersville Ga and those people will do anything to get your money. Told my wife they where a hanggliding place a few years back she bought a gift cert. Got down there and was told jump or go home no refund!

[Mike]

No thanks on the contract. I'm in the private sector keeping your supply train running.

Thanks for your service too, btw.

Loved skydiving. Sadly only tried it once when I lived in Kansas but it was great. See if they offer a tethered jump for your first time. Many places offer tethered or tandem. I chose tethered since I prefer to avoid guys strapped onto my a$$.

This is something I'd like to do but looks like I need to go on a serious diet to make the weight limit for them. I saw either 225 lbs or 215 lbs.
