piisfish 140 #51 January 11, 2005 yes, historic planes rock. Actually I like jumping from all planes/aircraft, they all have something special. Coolest as : best "everyday" plane : Twin Otters are great Coolest as : every ride is special : all planes 1st pic An2, then our Porter, and last the Ju-52scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #52 January 12, 2005 Breezy. It looks like a bridge girder with wings off a Piper Cub. The rear seat is only wide enough for one person and it really does get an inch narrower with every thousand feet you climb! Hee! Hee! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matthewcline 0 #58 January 14, 2005 My votes: Tandem from a C-141 (first Skydive and yes I did provide beer!) C-23B Sherpa (demo in PA) C-17 (6 people on board at 18K) C-5 (a real bumpy moment on the exit, big whole in the sky by that thing) But I do have around 1200 Blackhawk jumps, with a good pilot you can make every exit interesting.
