Well your so educated in how federal funding & the FAA works, please bless us all with your wisdom as to the many reasons you say could/maybe will affect all jumpers in the USA, this I would like to hear. So how is your guys part 13 or part 16 case moving along?

RIGGER160 0 #823 July 11, 2009 Why was it cancelled? Was it for any of the same reasons we couldnt jump? Like a actual DZ not being certified? I KNOW that couldnt be it because...oh yeah thats right every time a military airborne operation is conducted a pathfinder qualified individual will certify it. So. Insurance maybe? I dont think so. Your S-3 air guy who is a long tabber is already hating life so much from sitting in an office all day most likely seen the articles in the paper and cancelled it himself without even really thinking about it. And the part 13 and 16? Well its the government. So i'm sure you can figure out how well its going. The reason a buisness would move down the road to an airport that we cant jump at well........let me see.......this is a hard one......oh duh, TO MAKE MONEY, its a buisness. Would you let your buisness stop becuase you cant jump anymore or would you be a good buisness minded manager and try and keep making money for the company? As for the AST/Skyride thing. They are two different buisnesses Billy. Just like the rest of the people on here who dont like the fact that they dont get all the money from SR GC, we dont either. Like I said, they are our competitor. When we do our own advertising we get more money out of it...however. I have seen a lot of people bitch about this. They want DZOs to stop taking those GC so they can make more money per tandem. Well guess what guys. The reason those customers used skyride is because they seen SR advertising, not the actuall DZs advertising. So you wouldnt of even had that buisness come in if it wasnt for SR investing a lot of money into there advertising. Here is a perfect example of how skyride brought us buisness one time at outlaw: An 18 year old female lived right across the street from the terminal. Even though every weekend we had a turbine aircraft flying she didnt even know that we existed. She happened to run across a SR website and she signed up. She then walked across the street the next weekend and did her FJC and her first AFF jump. Without SR she could have moved before she realized we were there (which happened not to long after she completed her AFF) Or maybe she would have noticed canopys in the air and she would have walked over. Who knows. The point is SR brings buisness to DZs that they normally wouldnt get. Even if we are owned by the same persons they are STILL a competitor. Get this through your thick skulls people!

stratostar 5 #824 July 11, 2009 Nice skirt there Carol. Now how about you fill us all in with your insight and wisdom on the question asked. QuoteThere are many reasons for us not jumping at Outlaw. Many of those reasons could and maybe will someday affect ALL OF YOU As for QuoteThe reason a buisness would move down the road to an airport that we cant jump at well........let me see.......this is a hard one......oh duh, TO MAKE MONEY, its a buisness. Would you let your buisness stop becuase you cant jump anymore or would you be a good buisness minded manager and try and keep making money for the company? Nope I think I would stay put and keep my aircaft and SASO right there on the field and track each and every dime lost due to the illegal actions of Henry County and wait on the FAA to complete their Safety Study. Based on past history it should be an easy win and open up the door to sue the living shit out of the county for violating my rights and harming my business instead of running down the road like a coward with my tail tucked. Oh course I also wouldn't be doing all the crooked shit your company has a long history of doing and also causing waves with the airport auth. and violating the Minimum Standards and giving the airport auth. legal cause to shut me down in the first place. You might want read the part 16 win by USPA in Yazoo MS. You might learn a thing or two about why your DZ may not ever be back on Outlaw while another DZ might be able set up shop with no problems.

pilotdave 0 #825 July 11, 2009 You're suggesting the owners of your DZ make less money when someone books through skyride for a higher price than when they book directly through the DZ? That's ridiculous. That's how it works for most dropzones. That's not how it works when skyride owns the dropzone though! Sure, less money actually comes into the DZ, but the DZO's profits are higher. That was the entire original point of skyride... to funnel extra business into their own dropzones at higher prices by using deception and lies to confuse customers. Why would a skyride DZ waste money on their own advertising when their crooked big brother is going to funnel as much business to them as possible?
