i have not been current for years. my licence from Australia Parachute Federation as i was trained Down Under. depends on which course you take but about $2k to $3k for course fees alone.

 

check with comics, he is a current more experienced jumper and should have all the info you need

anything similar with iFly @ Santosa?

yes the physical feeling is the same but jumping out of a plane looking at the horizon at sundown cannot be replicated.

 

i did wind tunnel training in rumlang wind tunnel facility in switzerland 10yrs ago.

 

wind tunnel is very good for training body flight. great for formation skydivers.

imagine a standard 13000ft gives you about 60secs of freefall, a wind tunnel can give you 6000secs without stopping if you got the money....
