RevJim 0 #101 January 10, 2003 There ya go people, an actual DZO that's interested in hosting a DZ.com event! Granted, this location isn't ideal for getting the Michigan/Ohio jumpers there, but hey, who says we midwesterners have to settle for just one boogie?It's your life, live it!

PhreeZone 20 #102 January 11, 2003 Here's some things we are tossing around... the place we have in mind is about 1-1.5 hours from Chicago, about an 1+ from Indy. We are getting prices on a few places, primarly a Westwind (14 place, Otter size door, 9-10 Climb to 14k) as something very few people have jumped, if that pans out we have phone number for info on King Air's, Twin Otters (We need a lot more people intersted to do that) or... dear god the payments will bankrupt me... a Casa (We need a LOT more people to pull that one off).Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

indyz 1 #105 January 11, 2003 Within 2-3 hours of Chicago I'll be able to make it. I'm not sure what's going on with school right now though, I might be doing summer classes, which would put a damper on boogie plans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deleted 0 #108 January 11, 2003 and why is Aerohio the wrong way to go? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #109 January 11, 2003 It increases the drive for the Chicago folks. If we wanted to do it in Ohio, SGC has a tailgate that I know we are way more then welcome to use for any weekend this summer. And SGC is about 1-1.5 hours shorter from Chicago then Aerohio is.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

indyz 1 #111 January 11, 2003 Quotewhere is Sky Nights? Sky Knights is in Wisconsin, just a little ways southwest of Milwaukee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dumpster 0 #112 January 11, 2003 Sky Knights is at the East Troy, WI airport - (in SE Wisconsin-)We're a club, cool people, laid back, but still keep a King Air busy and will have an Otter for the upcoming year. We are enjoying some good growth, but strive to keep the good, small-club vibe going, and we're not too proud to fly our faithful C-182. I learned how to skydive from this plane, and kinda bonded with it- Check us out at www.skydiveskyknights.com Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #116 January 11, 2003 Okay...just to clue you all in as to what might go down....The location...probably the most central we could find....both RevJim and Phreezone have no qualms of driving there! The dzos response when questioned about it..."ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" And...with special favors, we could get a fleet of aircraft the Air Force would be jealous of! Unfortunately, these special favors will not occur. The possible date....we're thinkin June....There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A DZ means there is a jumpship and other jumpers! That's almost like saying you don't like beer. LOL (Ok, so I dont like beer.
