FUN FACT FRIDAY πŸͺ‚

We always talk about your altitude. 10,000ft. But how much of that do you cover in freefall?

At around 120mph, you'll likely cover 1,000 feet in roughly five seconds.

Yep.

Five. Seconds. 😳

So from 10,000ft, you're travelling through the sky pretty quickly before your parachute is deployed.

Autumn might be slowing everything else down…

But definitely not your skydive. πŸ‚πŸ˜‚

Fancy making this autumn one you'll never forget?

πŸ‘‰ Book your tandem skydive and get ready for 10,000ft of pure adrenaline.

Just 60 MPH… πŸ‘€

That's around the normal speed required for the aircraft to get us airborne - often a new feeling for people who compare to jetting off on holiday.

And from there?

Well… things get a little more exciting. πŸͺ‚

Of course, the only way to really understand the feeling of taking off, climbing to altitude and then stepping out into thin air is to experience it for yourself.

POV: You've just flipped out of the plane... and THIS is your view. 🀯 πŸͺ‚

Almost two miles above the ground. The wind is rushing past you.

Your brain is trying to process exactly what you've just done...

And then you look down. 😍

Magnificent Fife. The entire coastline. The mass of fields. The large towns like tiny dots below.

It's a view you'll never experience from the ground - and one you'll remember for a very, very long time.

Some experiences can't be matched, and aren't meant to be watched from your phone. πŸ“±

They're meant to be lived. Experienced. Remembered.

Incredible. Unforgettable.

πŸͺ‚ FUN FACT FRIDAY πŸ’¨

120MPH. But it's all about how it 'FEELS'.

You've probably been at 70mph.

Maybe you've experienced 100mph on a racetrack.

But 120mph… in freefall?

That's a VERY different experience (even if you have had the windows open) πŸ˜‚

No road.
No car.
No brakes.

Just you, your instructor… and a whole lot of air.

During your tandem skydive, you're travelling at around 120mph during the freefall - and you're doing it from being almost 2 miles above the ground.

And somehow, once you're actually up there in the fall, your brain goes from:

😳 β€œWhat have I done?”

to…

🀩 β€œTHIS IS AMAZING!”

Would you fancy experiencing 120mph without a road underneath you?

πŸŒ’ OUR KIND OF ECLIPSE. πŸͺ‚

LATER TODAY - the sky is putting on a pretty spectacular show - and we're lucky enough to have a front-row seat here at Fife Airport.

The partial solar eclipse will be visible from around 6:08pm, with the optimum viewing time at approximately 7:05pm, when around 91% of the Sun will be covered.

We'll be keeping our eyes on the sky (nothing new there then)…

We've got a slightly different idea of what being in the sky means. πŸ˜‚

So, where are you planning to watch it from?

Your garden? Somewhere with a great view? Down by the coast?

Tell us where you'll be watching from πŸ‘‡

And if you get a cracking eclipse photo later, drop it in the comments - we'd love to see them! πŸ“Έ πŸŒ’

Just remember: never look directly at the Sun without suitable certified eclipse eye protection. πŸ‘€

❀️ WHO WOULD YOU DO IT FOR?

You could do a walk, a marathon cycle for miles and miles 😴

Or you could do something EPIC πŸͺ‚

Steph decided to take on a challenge with a difference - jumping from 10,000ft with Skydive St Andrews while raising money for a cause incredibly close to her heart.

And judging by the smiles... she loved every second. 😍

Her verdict?

β€œBest day ever.”

And...

β€œAce fun.” ❀️

That's the thing about a charity skydive - sure, you're raising money and awareness for something that matters to you πŸ‘

But you're also giving yourself a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you'll be talking about for years to come.

Imagine looking back at your fundraising and being able to say:

β€œI jumped out of a plane for them.” πŸͺ‚

So forget the ordinary challenge.

Do something EPIC.

Good Morning πŸ‘‹

It's time for another FUN FACT FRIDAY πŸ₯³

Think you simply jump out of the plane? Not quite...

Before you even begin your 120mph freefall from 2 miles up in the sky, your entire body is already outside the aircraft! 😲

Your tandem instructor carefully positions you on the edge of the aircraft, they;ll be perched on the edge, and you're hanging completely outside, before making one smooth exit into the sky.

Why?

βœ… It creates a much more stable exit.
βœ… It helps you enter freefall in the correct body position.
βœ… It makes the whole experience smoother, safer and even more spectacular.

It's one of those moments you'll never, EVER forget

It's unlike anything else you'll ever experience.

🎁 Looking for an unforgettable gift?
❀️ Raising money for charity?
βœ… Or finally ticking that bucket list adventure off?

Who's brave enough? πŸ‘€πŸ‘‡

05/08/2026

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Two thumbs up… at 120mph?! πŸ‘€

It’s incredible what you can do when you're free-falling from 10,000ft at around 120mph. 🀯

Take Sean for example, comfortably giving our videographer George two thumbs up - while somehow managing a bigger smile than he's never smiled before! πŸ˜‚

And that's the thing about a tandem skydive - it's not just the rush (or initial fear) of rolling out of a plane.

It's the feeling of the wind.
The view from 2 miles up in the sky.
The adrenaline.

It's an experience you'll talk about for years.

Whatever your reason, make this year count and do something INCREDIBLE.

Meet Zoe.

She took the leap at Skydive St Andrews and turned her tandem skydive into something even more incredible - raising over Β£4,000 for MND Scotland. πŸ™Œ

That's the beauty of a charity skydive.

You get the adrenaline rush of jumping from 10,000ft, the unforgettable experience of free-falling at around 120mph...

…and you can use the challenge to raise money for a cause that really means something to you.

Whether you're fundraising for a charity close to your heart, taking on a personal challenge, or getting a group of friends together to do something extraordinary, your jump can make a difference.

And Zoe proves just how much you can achieve when you take the leap. πŸ’›
