sctdan 0 #26 October 14, 2010 It will be great to have a DZ only a few miles away. I only need another 100 jumps to get that "C".Quote Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites JohnDeere 0 #27 October 14, 2010 Thats great Rich, you will be a great DZO (if your wife keeps you straight! ). If i ever make it out there you better take me to 30k..... Nothing opens like a Deere! You ignorant fool! Checks are for workers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites osmrwangs 0 #28 October 14, 2010 Looks like they got it corrected again. The story now reads 13,000. I would love to jump in Oceanside. This is good motivation to progress in the sport! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Usetawuz 1 #29 October 14, 2010 Awesome! Be sure to get the word out when it's Grand Opening (don't mean 1K deployment ) Bet you'll get lots of support! _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites heavydude 0 #30 October 16, 2010 Holy Shit ! You really need to do this for my sanity, this means that lunch-time hops would be a possibility. I work right around the corner. (and also some other buddy jumpers do too) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skyrider 0 #31 October 16, 2010 Quote Good luck! Are you worried about the coastal weather? That was one of the reasons that Buzz went further inland when he opened Air Adventures at Brown. Rocky (Grimm should remember him, he was a JM at Perris, retired drill sargent) ran his DZ at Oceansside, mostly tandems, , and the weather (low clouds) was a constant headache! Made for short jump days! Hopen the best of luck for ya Rich...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites grimmie 186 #32 October 16, 2010 Rocky never advertised and used to do 10 tandems per day, by folks just driving by on sunny days also. We'll have some June gloom issues and a bit of overcast now and then. But it won't be 110 and there aren't any dust devils. And oh, darn, a weather day in Oceanside. We'll just go surf.

He is all for us jumping there. Unfortunately there is an election of two incumbents soon, so I may have to go schmooze some new council members. As of now we have the required votes. There are a lot of minor paperwork issues we are sorting through. I'll let you guys know at what city council meeting we will be getting the vote at. This has been an ongoing process since March. It appears we will now look at a St. Paddy's day grand opening. I will be taking the plane to Belize for a month in February for Boogie VII and Skyfari. And to all of you that have called and written e-mails to the council, thank you.
