kingbunky 3 #3 April 6, 2005 it's a (relatively) big ass tail gate plane. never jumped one myself, but i guess it's like a flying boxcar."Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."

kingbunky 3 #7 April 6, 2005 skyvan and casa are two different, but similar, planes. both are big boxy twin turbines with tailgates."Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart." MB4252 TDS699 killing threads since 2001 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wingnut 0 #16 April 6, 2005 QuoteGuess I'm missing something it's slow with a high minimum of jmpers.... a smaller faster plane with a lower minimum will be nicer!!! but then again a tailgate is nice!!!!! ______________________________________ "i have no reader's digest version" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildblue 7 #17 April 6, 2005 Correct! Casa is fun once in awhile... but I'd rather get to altitude faster, need less people to get off the ground, and have less people in the air with me on a full load.it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CieloDiosa 0 #18 April 6, 2005 its actually my favorite plane to jump out of i love the tailgate then again i didnt get to jump out of the purple machine at skydive atlanta ~boogie ho!! pull before impact! L.A.S.T#14, PMS #309, Ci EL O DI O SA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ifall 0 #20 April 6, 2005 Ok, good point but it is fun. I love that tailgate!! I jumped it on my level 5 and it really helped with my door fear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildblue 7 #21 April 6, 2005 QuoteHowever, they are just as fast, if not faster than Otters on the climb to altitude. Not a super otter.
