There will be lots of Birdies in the sky during the flop, though I am not sure if Perry is going to be in the air. He seems to have managed to hurt himself again![:/]

He says he will be there and have someone representing Phoenix fly and we have Birdman covered. Should be lots of fun!

Tammie :)
Let's have fun! :)

Okay, this is the deal as I last heard it(and it is coming from the DZO) ... the Skyvan will be flying loads on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Jump prices will be $21 (if the fuel prices drop any further, the savings will be passed along to ya'll). There will be a $25 registration fee which will include beer (mich lite, beer truck is also bringing some Miller Lite) on Friday and Saturday nights. At this point I am trying to confirm the helicopter is going to be there again. Also we will be having food for everyone on Saturday evening (smoked turkey and butts, baked beans and potato salad). People participating in the Hog-Flop competition (trophies for the top three teams), the video slot is being covered by yours truly, so please take care of your videographer! All gear will be inspected, must be TSO'd and in date. There is a rigger on the premises. All jumpers must belong to USPA and have completed their student jumps (i.e. A-license not required).

Please, if you haven't jumped here before, get a breifing of the area before you go up. There are plenty of "outs", but lets make sure you know where they are before you jump.

There are several hotels in the area, all within 5 to 10 minutes of the DZ.

Budget Inn 386-328-1533
Moorings 386-325-1055
Best Western 800-528-1234
Wm Penn 386-328-1587

Camping is permitted on the DZ. There are only two showers though, so maybe plan to shower early or late??? There are no more availiable RV hook-ups, but they are of course welcome.

Aerodyne will be there Friday, Saturday and Sunday with demo canopies.

This is my first boogie as a DZO, some go easy on me, although James and Ronnie are bringing some very special Ice Tea to ease any pain. Also, please take care of the manifestors and they will take care of you. Dorce and sevral of the packers from Deland are coming up, so that option is availiable.

Anyone having any further questions can either IM me or give me a call at 352-870-4999.

Becca and I and whoever is catching a ride with us will arrive sometime Friday since we're way south FL.



Katee, this guy from your area is looking for a ride to a dz.

because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon

Thanks for the networking...if our 4th person bails then we may have room to carpool him/her up there. Now that I have power..they should PM skyflyingbecca for details. We're campin out in a tent this weekend but from what I understand there is room in other tents and campers for peeps that are "homeless"....PM us soon for arrangements!

They are ready to work it! 2 cessnas will be there and ready to go also. Working on helicopter confirmation. Hot Air balloon in Palatka does not seem to be a safe option, as in once you clear the airport the poor balloon has no place to sit down and outs are not so good. Trust me when I say, you will get up in a timely manner!

does anyone have an extra rig 190sq ft, for a close personal friend of mine to use? he sold his gear months ago, (gf 7months pregnant)and has been renting to jump, money is tight fr both of us..
his best friend, him, and i were all supposed to come to flop for bestfriends aff1, but bestfriend died in a motorcycle accident saturday night.....[:/]
...
so. were going to do some runthroughs for an ash dive we want to do, and dont want to have to go to deland during the flop...

if anyone out there has gear we can use on sat. after the funeral or sunday-day, the favor would go a long way with him and me both....

take advantage of every second, and live each day as if it was your last...
thanks a million -b

You People have entirely too much time on your hands. What a boring ass sewing circle!



The only thing worse than sitting here posting......is sitting here reading what everybody else is posting. If we have too much time on our hands.....then you need to go away and find something else to do. If it is "THAT" boring why are you posting here? G.F.Y.!!!
