dirk.baumann 0 #329 November 26, 2005 QuoteQuoteSo, are we done? Is this the final list? - Definitely: [...] Please add: dirk.baumann Booked my flights several days ago :) What's up with the cross country canopy ride? It was mentioned above but I could not find any additional information ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bbarnhouse 0 #330 November 26, 2005 QuoteWhat's up with the cross country canopy ride? It was mentioned above but I could not find any additional information ... I am hoping the cross country will be large enough to use all the aircraft this year. We'll drop ya between 4 & 7 miles out depending on the winds and you'll fly your canopy back to the DZ while enjoying some of the best scenery at sunset. Each aircraft has its own Captain which will load the aircraft according to wing loading for exit order.Exits are at 13k and are clear and pulls with about a 3 second delay between exits. Individuals are responsible for checking in with their plane Captain upon return to the DZ. Its not a bad idea to have a partner of sorts should you land out. If you want on the same aircraft with someone, you will need to manifest together. It's always a good idea to tuck a cell phone in your jump suit just in case you land out.Make sure you dress warmly as it can be very cold hanging about . If you have additional questions, please feel free to shoot me a PM. B2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skykittykat 0 #342 November 28, 2005 Airspeed only do one 4-way and 8-way day - the rest of the boogie they are there load organising so the numbers of the groups can be anywhere from 6 to 20. If the weather comes in and there is only cloud base of about 7k a lot of people won't jump, so there is a good chance then of doing a 4-way. There is also more chance of getting in a quick 4-way if you are there and ready for first load. Liz Liz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll get the seminars up shortly, but for the most part there will be a daily "menu" of events outside of manifest. In the past I have always included a boogie pamphletin the goody bag, but I've found that most get tossed and not even looked at. I have decided to save some trees!
