The DZ will relocate to Middle Wallop Airfield for the duration of the military exercise on Salisbury Plain.
While we won't be running any Static Line courses, we are hoping to do some student jumping; Watch this space!! We will not be operating on Wednesdays or Fridays during this period. The weekend dates we will be at Middle Wallop are:
- 24th and 25th Aug
- 31st Aug and 1st Sept
- 7th and 8th Sept
These dates are subject to change. We cannot operate safely at Netheravon during this exercise due to the large amount of military personnel and aircraft (namely helicopters) on and around the camp. Also due to security during this exercise.
Directions
The Middle Wallop Dropzone is located five miles south of Andover and next to the Museum of Army Flying. It is signposted from the A303 following the exit towards Salisbury (A343). The Museum entrance is located just past the turning to the entrance to Middle Wallop Army Air Corps base. If travelling from the Salisbury area, follow the A343 where the Museum is clearly identifiable on the right side of the road.
The postcode for SATNAV users is SO20 8DY.
The skydiver reception is located in the museum conference room located below the café. An inside packing area is located in the main museum area next to the helicopter displays. Camping is available next to the car park but no toilet/shower facilities once the museum closes. A selection of APA rigs will be taken for hire. Jumping will start approx. 0900 and finish at 20 minutes before sunset.
The café has free WIFI and sells a large selection of food and drink.
