Description
Flight Club is a full spectrum skydiving business located at Thun Field in Puyallup, UCAS. It was originally founded by William Lindburgh, an Ancients affiliate, and focused on general aviation [id est smuggling] and sport parachuting. After her father was assassinated in 2080, Charlotte took over the business. Fueled by capital investments from the gang and venture capitalist Carleton Moreau, Charlotte dramatically changed the business model with a new focus on Matrix-based expeiences and new wind tunnels. Although drone rental & leasing is not yet a major source of revenue, it is a pet project of Charlotte, a skilled and experienced rigger in her own right.
Distinctive Features
The first rule of Flight Club is to always talk about Flight Club - sharing the dream of flight in a group setting with expert coaching from our uFLY Instructors is what Flight Club is all about!
At Flight Club, we're proud to empower people to soar beyond their own expectations. We believe that regardless of physical or cognitive characteristics, everyone should be given the opportunity to spread their wings. Anyone who comes to fly at Flight Club will be afforded proper accommodations based on specific desires. In addition to traditional sport parachuting, Flight Club offers indoor wind tunnel jumping and full simsense experiences in our sculpted host.
Personal Coaching with a world-class uFLY instructor is the fastest to improve your flying skills and the most rewarding way to learn. All of the uFLY Coaches are ISDA Certified for their flight skills and coaching level.

Facilities
Enjoy the thrill of flight without leaving home with our patented Good-as-Life simsense diving experiences! A simple direct neural connection and you can enjoy our state-of-the-art sculpted host. On the Matrix, you can skydive anywhere on Earth... or Saturn!
An Epic Indoor Experience - Come defy the law of gravity at Flight Club. Solo, with a group, with your family or friends, enjoy indoor skydiving in a safe environment. It's an opportunity to experience the sensation of free-fall. Imagine a 14-foot cylindrical diameter vertical tube that is 45 feet tall in which the airstream is passing at a speed of 175 km per hour. Once inside the wind tunnel, you will have a real sense of what skydivers experience during the free-fall portion of their jump, which is generally done from 13,500 to 3,500 feet of altitude at a speed of 200 km per hour. All of that in a safe and secure environment.
Flight Club offers sport parachuting, flight training, and aircraft rental out of our facilities here at Thun Field. Pierce County Airport covers an area of 200 acres (81 ha) at an elevation of 538 feet (164 m) above mean sea level. It has one asphalt runway: 17/35 is 3,651 by 60 feet (1,114 x 18 m) with runway edge lights and PAPIs on both ends. Flight Club operates a fleet of 2 single-engine aircraft, 12 multi-engine aircraft and 1 helicopter. In addition 10 drones are available for flight training.
There are many advantages to booking a charter flight, such as being able to fly on your own schedule, not having to wait in line, fly into airports that may be much closer to your actual destination, and more! When you consider the time and expense associated with waiting for a flight, car rentals, hotel and dining expense just so you can meet the airline schedule, booking a charter flight might make more sense.
