carbon 0 #1 September 26, 2002 I was playing around on http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/address.aspx and found an aerial picture of my DZ in West Point VA. The aerial data is from '94 so things aren't exactly right. If you ever wanted to know what your DZ looked like 8 years ago, now you can. You'll have to play around with the controls to find what you want. If you don't know the address of you DZ, you can use this http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/place.aspx. To create the GIF image, I did a "Print Screen" and used Paint Shop Pro to crop the image. -Carbon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cajones 0 #4 September 26, 2002 Small landing area? Bullshit. You can land a Casa there - too bad YOU can't land in the open area - tree boy. The laws of physics are strictly enforced. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cornholio 0 #19 September 26, 2002 Here is Bay Area Skydiving, in Byron, California. It looks really ugly in the summer with brown everywhere, but looks rad in the winter/spring when the grass is green everywhere as you can see from my tandem picture. Oh, did I tell you that the Byron Boogie starts TOMORROW !?!? BTW - Mapquest gives better AND more updated pictures than Terraserver. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool! bellyflier on the dz.com hybrid record jump Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
