Indoor skydiving facility under construction near new Braves stadium

Indoor skydiving facilities will soon add an entertainment option around the New Atlanta Braves stadium

iFly uses a vertical wind tunnel from the wall to the wall in a flight cabin to simulate a free fall parachute experience of leaflets over 3 years old and is currently under construction of recently recommended golf and entertainment facilities.

However, the company had to succumb to the Cobb County code to ensure a perfect location at the corner of I - 285 West and Cobb Parkway.

According to a document submitted to the Cobb County Division, in March 2015 project engineers said the facility needs to be 8 feet higher than the standard 50 ft limit.

"The height and design of the building as a whole is an important part of indoor skydiving experience because the whole building contains a pipeline work line that can be used to fly in the interior rooms," said the letter I mentioned.

The request was rejected. Other requirements such as narrowing the depth of the parking space and increasing the area of ​​marking on the wall were also rejected.

Patrick Framel, vice president of development for iFly, said it would normally find another location after being dismissed.

However, as this is a unique situation, iFly redesigned facilities dedicated to the location of Cobb County. The size of the building needs to be reduced according to the wind tunnel, but Framel shows that the structure is "identical".

According to Framel, this will be the first place in Georgia and 56th place in 13 countries. The first factory opened in Orlando in 1998

So we went indoors for skydiving. iFLY has opened a new 14-foot wind tunnel in San Diego's Mission Valley. It is a state-of-the-art facility with a two-story glass room driven by four electric fans each generating 400 horsepower. This means they can push through the aircraft in one minute the equivalent of 11,000 feet of clean air. The airspeed can reach 175 mph per hour - this is far more than you need. I have been flying wind tunnel for about 15 years, but this time I was deeply impressed by San Diego.

Indoor Skydiving Source has more than 6 years industry experience and provides all manufacturers the only complete data set on indoor skydiving facilities. While continuing our unbiased role, we will introduce this article to those who are interested in building and managing indoor skydiving facilities. We also cover small niche markets for temporary settings such as events and seasonal installations. Since 2014, ISS has worked with manufacturers, operators, and potential wind tunnel operators. The following document will guide the basics of construction and operation of the wind tunnel. If you have any questions, or if you have further inquiries, please visit the resources on this website or find the latest manufacturer list here and contact one or more.

When starting the indoor skydiving business, determining the type of wind tunnel you want to make is an important first step. The type and size of tunnels vary greatly depending on the location of construction. If you are not familiar with different types of vertical wind tunnel, we strongly recommend reading articles on this topic. Portable and permanent installation is possible in any of various types and sizes of tunnels. Portable tunnels are usually propeller designs or more loud open flow designs. This limits the number of positions that can be operated. These machines also typically consume smaller, less power, require fewer surrounding populations, or even even seasonal places. These tunnels usually require good weather to run
