jtval 0 #1 October 2, 2013 OK, so, I've been here for a few months and I am 32 miles from Cross keys. But every one I talk to (in real life; not websites) says X-keys has gone down hill. Something about FAA fines/maintenance. Anyone have any light they can shed. I am looking to go skydiving and find a home.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boomer10 0 #2 October 3, 2013 I live in PA and work in NJ. I don't really have a home DZ since where I learned shut down last year. Crosskeys is closest to my house and work, but most of my friends jump elsewhere so I generally bounce between Crosskeys, Maytown (PA), and Sky's the Limit (PA).

philly51 0 #3 October 3, 2013 Ck's Super Otter is grounded due to a FAA paper work issue that's being resolved. They are flying a Kodiak. It 's a turbine, carries 14 jumpers and has a large door. Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, Shouting "...holy shit...what a ride!"

Melissa126 0 #4 October 3, 2013 I'm not sure how far you are from sky's the limit (www.skysthelimit.net) but that's my home, i'm sure you'd be welcome. We have a super otter, grand caravan, skyvan, and a 182. Some wingsuiters, lots of belly flyers and lots of free flyers and an amazing low key vibe. I'm there every weekend, feel fee to drop by and check it out! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #5 October 4, 2013 Thanks everyone. Melissa, I will eventually check out some other dz's but, I live 32 miles from CK. 90 miles from skys the limit. Both are relatively close so, I'll be checking them out. Thanks.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #7 October 7, 2013 I drove to Ck this weekend. Jumped their otter. It was a decent place. I hope that its a cool dz and that I can find some family there. The ranch: Been trying to jump there for 16 yrs. I gave up. EVERY time I was in NY the weather sucked. (I grew up in NY and traveled back almost yearly) Maybe I'll get up there, but, If I am going to drive 2-3hours I'm going to visit my sick mother instead of jumping.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
