MarkM 0 #5 October 10, 2006 The chopper jump during the Keys Boogie is pretty nice, if you don't mind the drive to Key Marathon. Last year the guy gave you a pretty nice flight around the Key, before dropping you off over the LZ. You'll need a C license to jump at the boogie, but you have the jumps to get that pretty easily. http://www.skydiveseb.com/faq-keysboogie.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

huey 0 #7 October 16, 2006 Sure campers are welcome! Did you ever see the Woodstock movie? I think of that movie constantly as I am on the tractor clearing the LZ and building the observation deck(Stage). "The Dude abides" - Jeff Labowski Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
