i'd like to buy my uncle a tandem sky dive for his 60th birthday next month. i've checked the web and see i can get him one for £200 or less but i'm wondering if any of the centres (ideally within an hour's drive from london) have a particularly good or bad reputation? any advice anyone can give me as to where you recommend, and any other things worth bearing in mind, would be much appreciated. cheers.

All Centres in the UK are affiliated to the British Parachute Association and abide by their rules and regulations. If you are on the north side of London, check out Skydive Airkix at Peterborough on 01832 280490 or their website at http://www.skydiveairkix.com. On the south side perhaps Headcorn parachute Centre near Maidstone. Their number is 01622 890862.
