To Perris or to Deland...

Recommended Posts

If you're in Florida, why just Deland? The Fla DZ's where I've jumped are Zhills and Lake Wales. Both are great, Zhills fits my personal flavor better.

Story:
Have a southwest plane ticket I need to use by the end of the month and can not decide on which one I should go visit. Any suggestions?



Having lived in Daytona for 5 years I can say that the end of January, beginning of February is a time where it is common to have low clouds and drizzley days.

Having spent two winters in California I can say that the end of January, beginning of February is a time where it is common to have low clouds and drizzley days.

Heck, just toss a coin and go. ;)

Well, emergency doors won't open in flight anyway, right?



Something about air pressure and the doors opening inward. ;)

Besides, I don't think a side-exit in front of a jet intake at 500mph is a survivable way to leave the plane. :S

Perris is also only about an hour (at most) from Elsinore, you could catch them both...



That's not really a good argument. He could catch Deland, Z-hills, Lake Wales, Space Center, Sebastian and the tunnel all within 2 hours here.

No....but even just mocking that you are going to open it will get you arrested when you arrive. Thought you (and others) might like to know that.

Yes, I have had 2 people arrested off of my plane. No, it wasn't for going to an emergency exit inflight.

I am not that big of a Jack Ass!




LOL....didn't say you were...but I get that all the time from jumpers on how'd they like to mess with the psych of other passengers and crew.

I actually was jumpseating one time and was asked if I had friends in the back. I had to say yes that I knew there were some skydiver friends on board. They said one was claiming to be with the NTSB and was going to write up a flight attendant. They were not too happy and I begged the CA to not have him arrested. This was before 9/11. I don't think any pleading would have helped if this happened after 9/11.

Okay, IMHO you definitely should fly into Ontario airport, catch a taxi to Perris and join in on the fun at the Jack, off to Perris boogie. . .that way you could jump at Perris and Elsinore on the same day. . .course it starts this weekend and ends next weekend so you better hurry. . .
