PhreeZone 20 #7 March 11, 2014 Some of the DZ's in the midwest are having a race to the cheapest tickets this summer. I have seen prices at $18 from one DZ and $17.50 at a different one for full altitude with no bulk purchase.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LyraM45 0 #15 March 11, 2014 I'm still working off a bunch of tickets I got for $18 at Skydance. I know a lot of places run specials during the season, or turn a week day into '$15 fun jump Fridays' and stuff. So, always worth keeping an ear open for those kinds of things. Just remember.... some things in life, you get what you pay for!Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As long as the plane received the mandated work the feds will let it fly, but that won't stop them from pursuing enforcement action. You can bet they'll keep sniffing, too. For a reason, IMO. They aren't known for targeting operations that play by the rules. There are way too many real targets out there and apparently they've found one.Chuck Akers D-10855 Houston, TX Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
