sunset jumps are cool and all, but wingsuiting onto the surface of the sun is much more cool. Thats my favorite place to jump

Big Way Wingsuit sunset jump, and I don't care where, as long as there is grass to land on.

I've never had a bad one...Oceanside, CA does stick out in mind though.

Any Sunset Load where you are in the sky with your best friends ..........

Life is short ... jump often.

The staff load at the end of a busy day.

Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Beach load in bathing suits with friends at a boogie after a really hot day, oh and the beer was waiting at the landing area

Several years ago at the Lost Prairie Boogie my wife and I did the 12.5K hop and pop, cross country sunset load. There were 3 layers of scattered clouds below and around us, all lit up gold, orange, and pink as we sailed back to the DZ. Those glowing clouds and the natural beauty of Montana made it one of the prettiest sunset loads I've done.

The beer was in my hand by 12k.

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

Grenade jump high pull.

Eloy, Sunset high pull over the desert. I really wish I had a camera but I had just above 100 jumps at the point.

So I have memories of those breathtaking views!

I'm standing on the edge
With a vision in my head
My body screams release me
My dreams they must be fed... You're in flight.

I agree with John. Lost Prairie Saturday night sunset load is one of the best. Before they paved the runway it would be the DC-3, Skyvan, and a couple of Otters. Along with a formation flyby in the days before gopros and facebook. They wrecked the fire tower flybys too.

If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

Pilots don't want any videos of what could be construed as a violation of the FAR's.

What do you mean they paved the runway? Like it used to be an all grass airfield or what?

[DBCOOPER 5]

Used to be a dirt strip.
