try googling out Aeroklub - every region has one - usually they have a couple of airstrips at their disposal - parachuting was once fairly popular in Poland with every Aeroklub running parachuting courses - it may be a bit different now - the sport is pretty expensive and the mainstay of the former parachuting clubs were Russian planes (even if Polish built) which I guess are out of service by now - I don't think most of Aeroklubs were in the shape to replace these

man! - they are still using those An-2's these days - I wonder how ancient this one is- maybe their aiframes are not that bad after all (An-2 is a very good plane for parachuting) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQSI-PvRLpo
