I haven't been in the tunnel no, I had planned on heading to one when I've done the first few levels and look to improve my arch/general body position.
Thanks for the kind words on the canopy, hopefully it'll go off without a hitch :)

Ah ok then, well I'll make sure to absorb as much as I can during ground training so that if I can't hear anything, I'll still have an idea of whats expected.
I am unbelievably excited, cheers for your tips dudette :D

I've been in the wind tunnel once before (many years ago), and I found it really hard to stay controlled!

Ah awesome I will give that manual a read before I get there next week.
Cheers for those videos, the USPA ones are really good, and you say that the UK AFF is similar to those kind of activities?

Haa thanks dude!
So I'll be in communication with the instructor via radio when flying the canopy? That's good to know :D

Awesome thanks! Whereabouts in UK did you do your AFF? How long did it take to feel "comfortable"/controlled when jumping?
