PhreeZone 20 #2 February 25, 2004 Actual email reads as: Hello everyone!!! I hope that you'll all be as excited as I am to hear that we'll have an Otter by Saturday morning at 11 a.m. The forecast is beautiful (for February in Ohio), so please come on out and jump on Saturday, Sunday, or both! Looking forward to seeing everyone soon! Blue skies, Robin Turbines have returned to Ohio!

Greene 0 #5 February 27, 2004 The Otter WILL be there soon after the 11 inches of snow melts off the runway at CSS, and our pilot can fly out of there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #7 February 27, 2004 Just kinda curious here......there's already 11 inches, and it's supposed to snow a ton tomorrow there, what's the likelihood of the Otter getting there by Saturday? I'd prefer not to lug my gearcase around if I don't need to (also, I'd really prefer not to take my gear into downtown Chicago if I don't have to.)There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greene 0 #8 February 27, 2004 Who would know? Not me. Eleven inches of snow in NC? Who would have figured? Oh well, we all know, Miss Mother Nature can be very fickle. Lee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdC 0 #9 February 28, 2004 How's the weather in NC today? Any chance that otter will be able to make it to SGC? I feel a corn field calling my name. Big Ed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #13 February 29, 2004 Can someone start an SGC "Serious Free Flyers" list? I'm going to be there as much as I can and I want to work on the "SKILLS!" I would like to get some 5-8 way stuff going on if we have enough skill there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdgregory 0 #14 March 1, 2004 I must say I was afraid fo the Cessna if it had more than three people on it. I was afraid of being able to move about when jump run came without being in pain (I ain't limber). But we got four on there today (two of us chunka-chunka burning love and two long suckers. We filled the plane pretty damn good and when jump run came there was perfect co-ordination for all. I am no longer afraid of Cessna's. The exits were a freakin' blasts! Launched a perfect round on one and had a sweet view as the first one out for a diving three way on another. I looked up at the plane and tracked toward it to help close for the diving away toward me. The views was breathtaking! Chizazz turns 90 on the hill and we close the gap while the other guy, Ryan, dove out after. I wish I had film of this Point-Of-View. It was the best exit view I have ever had! Oh what a wonderful weekend! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
