Aviatrr 0 #3 February 7, 2002 Flagler is about 60 miles north of Titusville......about 20 miles north of Daytona Beach..Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weid14 0 #4 February 7, 2002 at 80 miles an hour, you can be there in no time!! :) (I made it from New Smyrna to Orlando airport in record time last week -- I left work at 5:52, and was at the gate for my 7:20 flight at 7:15). so 85-90 on I-95 is not out of the question.

Brokeneagle 0 #7 February 8, 2002 Wa-hooo!! Dang, that's good news- I liked that place when it was open before, even tho we had to ride in a bus from the landing area to the DZ proper.... Flagler is a beautiful small town, nice beaches- and as I recall, beach jumps for qualified jumpers were a common occurance, too And is this the same Howard Adams from Skydive North Georgia/Ellijay jumping days, worked at one time on canopies with Red? Brokeneagle. I'm really very gentle, no matter what my kung-fu teacher says... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyhi 24 #8 February 8, 2002 Mike,Do you know if it is open now or what kind of aeroplanes (used the British spelling for our friends across the pond) it will employ? Checked the website and it's under construction. But I'm geeked. Is it hot in here, or am I crazy? - Charles Mansonflyhi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That reminds me of somthing, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Hmmm......Is it hot in here, or am I crazy? - Charles Mansonflyhi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I didn't say previously because it's second hand info, and figured it would be better to get it from the source, but........they are starting with a Cessna(182 I believe), and trying to get a Porter.. Unknown if the Porter is for this weekend or in the future.. Details are kinda sketchy at this point - best thing is probably to call Howard and ask..Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
