FallnAngel 0 #51 September 17, 2001 QuoteKaren,Did you get to jump Saturday? I called Sky Dance at 9AM and they said as soon as they get a full plane they would go up. I jumped in my truck and it wouldn't run. I called back at 11:00 and she said the FAA changed their mind and they were grounded again. Just wondering if anyone got to jump? I didn't call Sunday as I had a prior commitment.JMC Hi, JMC!Nope, no jumping on Sat. It was looking good at first, but then, like you said, everything fell through. We're going to try again this weekend, though. They've rescheduled the crw camp for this Sat. If you end up going to the dz, look for me! Not sure if we've met...I'm 5'9", curly shoulder-length hair, and I usually jump with the Beard twins & my hubby Steve...If you're on student status, then we land in the same place as you...we're perpetual barnies. [grin] (been jumping over a year, and we're still all landing at the Barn, go figure! hahaha)Blue skies,Karen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JMC 0 #52 September 17, 2001 Yep student status. I'll be landing at the barn. You can't miss me, I'm 6'4" with brown hair. I started my AFF on 9-8 so last Saturday would have been my second jump.JMC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm only on CATC/D, & hope to progress quickly through the program. The people there at Skydance are great! Hope to see you guys this Saturday!

JMC 0 #57 September 19, 2001 Me too. I'm going there regardless. Like I read in another post, I'll just go spend some $$. Buy some new goggles or pay for my next jump whether the planes go up or not. I'm sure they could use the cash. I might even head over there friday 'cause my company is doing this forced holliday stuff. John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chopchop 0 #65 September 21, 2001 Here, there, everywhere.. seriously. I have only been skydiving for about 9 months and have jumped at 10 different dzs. I was skyborn at Skydive Atlanta in Thomaston - AFF level 1, did the rest of AFF at Byron, and since have jumped again in Atlanta, Skydive Chicago with Roger, Quincy 2001, Skydive Dallas - woohoo, great people!, Skydive Texas, Lake Tahoe, Perris, Davis, and Lodi. 10 dzs and only 93 jumps. The most jumps i have made anywhere would be Byron with about 40%. I am starting to like Lodi an aweful lot, though so I guess I jump at Lodi.
