Squeak 17 #1 November 9, 2004 OK so I'm in Florida in January, and Egon (RWS) and LYLE (Sunpath) say you MUST go to PIA Symposium. OK So I visit the site and see a whole oload of differeing prices from $5 to serveal hundred. So What do you get for the $5 day entry, are there any lectures or the like in the general show room or are they only available at the Higher rates??? Is it worth going just to check out the stalls and window shop?? Is there anything worth doing in Jacksonville for my NON-skydiving wife whilst I check out shit I can't affordThanks for any helpfull assistanceYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

councilman24 37 #3 November 9, 2004 The $5 single pass to the exhibit hall is just that. None of the seminars are included or given in the exhibit hall. The one day $95 pass includes ALL seminars that particular day and the exhibit hall. The full registration is for all seminars, exhibit hall, and closing banquet. As listed on link above.I'm old for my age. Terry Urban D-8631 FAA DPRE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coolest thing last time? Fancy calender in Russian.

SkymonkeyONE 4 #5 November 11, 2004 The PIA symposium is a "must attend" for the serious skydiver wanting to learn all he or she can about gear. The last one was my first and I will absolutely not miss another one ever again. I will absolutely be there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
