DETAILS
Meet your Tandem Instructor at the airport in the wee hours of the morning. (The actual time will vary depending on the time of year.) While the stars are out and it's still very dark you get geared up, get trained up and board your aircraft. You take off in the dark of night and see the lights of the Coast, it's a beautiful sight all lit up like a Christmas Tree. As the plane climbs to jump height the dark sky changes to twilight - the sky turns from black to purple - and as you reach jump height the sky lightens with the promise of the new day dawning. When the sun cracks the horizon and you see the curvature of the earth in all it's glory, it's time to jump out and take in these spectacular visuals while in freefall. As you descend back down, travelling at high speed, the sun disappears and you're back into twilight. Flying under canopy at this time is a sight and a feeling to behold. The air is so clean and fresh and the view is amazing! The colours of the coast are beautiful. Either as you are flying your parachute or shortly after you land in tandem on the soft sands of Coolum Beach, the sun rises for the second time, over the ocean. What a fabulous way to start the day! This is living

Don’t wear a collared shirt as they tend to flap your neck when you are in freefall and then everyone will be asking where you got the love bite from.
