wbtripp 0 #28 October 26, 2005 I am in for the 3rd. I will be working through the garrison office to see if Barton Field will be available for us to land on. Just for planning purposes, Barton Field's long axis is almost exactly a 90 by 270 degree (grid, not mag.). It is about 1300 meters by almost 300 meters. Lots of outs, also. There is a concert on the east end of Barton Field starting at 1800 hours that day. Eric Horner will be performing (Patriotic/Christian/Country music). Concert is free and the public is invited. Maybe that could be the start of the party? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpchikk 0 #29 October 26, 2005 I want to get in on this too. I'm just a little leary about how cold it is going to be on those days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaoskitty 0 #30 October 26, 2005 QuoteI want to get in on this too. I'm just a little leary about how cold it is going to be on those days. Yah its gonna be cold.. particularly on the altitude ride. Wear lots of layers and bring those hand warmer thingys. We'll get a thermos of hot cocoa or something for the ride up. You'll only be cold for a few minutes..

fmmobley 0 #32 October 26, 2005 Since balloons just drift with the wind, how can you know where they will land? And for that matter, where will we land? How does all that work?... Marion Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisamariewillbe 1 #33 October 26, 2005 Clays plane arrives the day before, so it is hard for us to commit, without knowing how his jet lag will be. Plus he wont jump if it is below 40. Is there going to be the chance for last minute reservations?Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chaoskitty 0 #35 October 26, 2005 Sounds scary. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites ReLLiK75 0 #36 October 26, 2005 The balloon pilots take wind speed and drift into account to determine a good launch point. If the wind is cooperative that day and they can find an good area to launch from which will put them over Ft. Gordon at altitude then we'll be landing on Barton Field (provided the approval is arranged). Otherwise, that's what we have chase teams for! __________________________________________ Have you Got Flare?
