Fuck me thats a bit steep isnt it?

I can go fly a plane with an instructor for £120 n hour lol
To put it into perspective 1min is exactly the amount of free-fall time you'd get from a tandem skydive or regular jump.
A first time tandem sky-dive will set you back around £300 and that's just for the jump, it doesn't count expenses (only a few places in the country are suitable for skydiving).

£300 worth of vertical wind tunnel training time in one go will have you more experienced than a fully qualified skydiver.
To get to the same level of experience from actual live jump time from a plane would cost you between £3000-£5000.
And vertical wind tunnels are open year round, no matter the weather.

Oh dont get me wrong I know they are an valuable training tool and a lot easier than teaching someone solely from jumps etc but it still seems excessive, its not like the fans n instructor cost £1500 n hour to run is it? They are easily making £1k profit per hour out of the £1500 charged bare minimum, just seems rather "whack the prices up lad as these fuckers have no other choice than to pay it lol"
