Deuce 1 #227 June 6, 2003 Yeah, I like that account thing too, but when I run up to you and say "Gimme a ticket!" just give me one. Fun stuff will ensue. No giant airport monitors, either. Gotta listen! "SkyVan Load 14 go to the plane! JP, JP, Andrea, Gary, Lizzie, Seb, Mike, TIMMAE!, Roy, Jim, Shannon, Sandy, Peter, Peter" etc. etc. And I haven't heard them ever say "Yeah... Whatever" Ever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
superstu 0 #229 June 6, 2003 since i've never been to skydance and this will be my 1st boogie, what can i expect for jump prices? will the helo be more? how about going to 18k? i'm thinking of calling in sick to work friday so i can drive down thursday and jump friday, saturday.Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lummy 4 #230 June 6, 2003 I think the 18k loads are $25, at least they were last year. JT's are $18 a pop or blocks of 10 for $169. Me thinks they have 25 blocks that are even cheaper. Heli jumps last year were $35 .. NM... Looks like they've changed pricing discount prices 12 for 209 24 for 409 50 for 799I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

NoShitThereIWas 0 #232 June 7, 2003 I am down with the all chick hybrids idea. That could be way fun. I know I could lay base and/or have Chop Chop teach me how to be a stinger. I could also be part of a rodeo. I have a little rodeo experience, Yeee Haw!!! Ok, but seriously, the idea of all chick hybrids has my interest. A chick videographer would need to come play too.Roy Bacon: "Elvises, light your fires." Sting: "Be yourself no matter what they say." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deuce 1 #235 June 7, 2003 I know there's a few female camera fliers at Davis and Lodi. I don't know of any who post. Being as I live in the House of Estrogen, I think I can get an exemption and video the load.

I'll be digging through my winter clothes for sure! Well, if you're gonna plagiarize, go big! Mark Twain said that. Yes, they sell more sweatshirts to tourists in SF in August than any other time. I picked up Clay yesterday at SFO and it was 60 degrees. 40 miles inland it's 80 (about the same temps at Byron and Davis) Unless the fog's all the way down to the deck, it's not humid. At the coast you'll want a jacket and pants handy, and a hat, but inland 20 miles or so, it's hot. Bathing suit hot. The best weather on the coast is in September. It's overcast just about every morning to about mid-morning all summer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skymama 37 #247 June 9, 2003 Wow, Mark Twain...who'd a thunk it!
