My kid did 2 days at the Brisbane indoor skydiving centre last week and accumulated almost 30 minutes of freefall. By the end he was doing solo entry and exits, stable turns and figure eights, fast and slow fall... I've googled centres in Thailand and from what I can see there are 3 or 4. One site says there's one in Bangkok but I don't know Bangkok that well and can't make head or tail of where it might be. Has anyone else tried it, or know where I can find one and how to get to it?

^^ Aha, that's the one. Thanks Rgs. Why couldn't I find that? I found the one at Pattaya and Samui. So now I Google "Seacon Square". If it isn't near the airports or Chinatown I've probably never been there.

We caught a cab from Swampy to DM a while back at night and drove past "Nana Plaza" or whatever it's called. I remember thinking, "so that's where it is", ....

The type of places I generally avoid.

See some tourists spots before journeying more? You had a long flight, massage? Makes you wonder how much this 'short trip' cost the lads

Makes you wonder how much this 'short trip' cost the lads I caught it out of the corner of my eye, otherwise it would have gone unnoticed. The meter was on, I tipped him generously as I always do with the honest ones.

I just recall going past it sometime at night. The misses was in the front and she knows Bangkok better than most. We might have been on our way to the opera (or whatever)
