Liz 0 #1 January 28, 2002 Oh my dog! The new Cross Keys Super Otter is going to get us all in shape, because I have never seen those jump sluts at Skydive Cross Keys run so fast for loads. The turn times on this new Otter are really fast! We flew 17 full loads today (Sunday) between 11am and 5pm and they weren't even all back to back! We are having so much fun, we are opening tomorrow, too. And Wednesday - don't forget $11 Wednesday! And Friday...and then FREEZEFEST 2002! Yep, I think Kelly is going to have to clean that pool...

Jimbo 0 #5 January 28, 2002 Quotecome to parris and see what a REAL DZ is like Exactly how many loads does one need to put up in a day to be a "REAL DZ"? I think we had some days last summer with greater than 80. Is that enough? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 273 #9 January 28, 2002 I've never been to Cross Keys but from everything I've heard (and not just on this forum) it's as much a "real" dz as is Perris, Elsinore, Eloy, etc. 17 loads on a January day on the East Coast is pretty damn impressive! pull and flare,lisa--Life is tough, but I'm tougher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
