sangiro 26 #1 August 7, 2007 Ok - this is one of those stupid things that can suck you in and waste your time! Here's the challenge: Go to the Drop Zone map search in the Drop Zone Database. Leave the search radius at 100 miles See if you can find a location that will give you more than 11 DZs in a 100 mile radius off the bat on the original search. No scrolling after you've done the search (that will give you more results) - there has to be more than 11 on the search results listYou can find 11 in a 100 mile radius in Florida: lat=29.03215782622282 lng=-81.62017822265625Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #2 August 7, 2007 That doesn't count since its showing 2 DZ's on Lake Wales! Its also got Jacksonville as having 2 DZ's but I don't think either are still open. Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 20 #5 August 7, 2007 Correction, one of those in Jacksonville is open. So you only have 9 I'm up to 8 with a few different combos around Chicago: '41.64007838467894, -89.033203125' Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharimcm 0 #6 August 7, 2007 I only found 5 in my search... The only "issue" I found was the aircraft has not been updated... But, as far as I know, they're all still open.

sangiro 26 #11 August 14, 2007 Nice! So 13 seems to be the number to beat. We've got 2 locations with 13 DZs in a 100 mile radius. The east coast is loaded with places to jump! Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
