Naptown 0 #1 September 4, 2003 I know someone with a big chunk of change and is very serious about building a wind tunnel here in the mid Atlantic area. Me being the only skydiver he knows he asked me to start digging up some info for him about how to get a project like this started. Any help would be great.

Dumpster 0 #7 September 5, 2003 Hey - Maybe he's consider the Chicagoland area, too - Lots of potential business there, being so close to Ottawa, Hinckley, and Morris, plus some from the Milwaukee area - I for one would be regular!

jumpgod 0 #8 September 5, 2003 grrravy. all i can say is to try to make one without a propellor at the base as a wind source as when you get higher in the tunnel, the air gets too turbulant to pull moves and do good training. also, a wide base of airflow would help as well. sorry if this wasn't what you were looking for but maybe it will help. thanks, jg"dude, where's my main?"
