I told him of my intent to train for an "A" license and he told me that it wasn't going to happen. I told the dispatcher of my intent and she called over the head instructor. At 0740 people stared rolling in and I checked in. I've never been to a DZ and seen so many negative faces! He gave me hope that I would be allowed to jump, made me sit around waiting for 2 hours till the DZ got a little less busy with tandems, then changed his mind and told me no! Almost everyone at this dropzone was moody and I can't understand why? The location is so amazingly beautiful and I can only imagine how stunning it would look up at 14k ft. I was very disappointed, so I spoke to the DZ owner/manager and he has got to be the biggest asshole I've ever met in my life, very rude and dismissive little old man. After been given the run around for about 30 minutes I was told by a moody instructor I can't jump. When we arrived I was greeted by numerous staff that didn't know what was going on and were only concerned with the bus loads of tandems arriving at the DZ by the minute. I was staying on Maui island and had to fly over to Oahu island to visit the DZ, dragging my wife along with me because she knows how much I love the sport. Emailed and called the dropzone a couple of weeks before arriving in Hawaii and was told they accept fun jumpers and have equipment rental. It's very funny that I've logged on to leave a review about this DZ and seen someone below has left a review almost identical to what I'm about to write! I came to Hawaii on vacation and brought my current log books, licence, worldwide comprehensive insurance papers.
