thedarkside 0 #1 December 13, 2006 I'm going on a buisness trip to Key West for a couple weeks in Feb and I'm looking for a DZ that is close...The only one I found said $35 for a lift to 10,000ft and absolutely no wing loading more than 1.2 and a D licence with 500 jumps...So that ones out, I'm loaded at a 1.5 and my friend is a 1.8. With that in mind where would be the best place to hit up that's not too far away for the weekends? Thanks!Keep going faster until the joy of speed overcomes the fear of death.

divnswoop 0 #2 December 13, 2006 Skydive Miami in Homestead is going to be the closest......about a 3 hour drive.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USNLawdog 0 #3 December 13, 2006 I live in the key west area and routinely drive to Homestead on the weekends. If you coming down for a business trip your best bet is either drive to homestead or just utilize key west for it's assets. A lot of bars and boozing. I highly reccomend Irish Kevins."I've taken the liberty of drafting your confession, you will be given a fair trial and then taken out back and shot."

thedarkside 0 #4 February 27, 2007 You know this is really too bad...what a beautifull place to jump (key west). How sweet would it be to swoop the beach here. I've read many reviews on Homestead and it looks like a tandem factory. Thanks for everyone's input!Keep going faster until the joy of speed overcomes the fear of death.

Zydrius 0 #5 February 27, 2007 Skydive Miami closest, nice and friendly dz, Cessna Caravan, altitude. Also, traveling to Key West we found mini dz with small cessna (not to far from local airport) they offered tandem jumps. Just try to find them, maybe you lucky:) It should be more than amazing to make few jumps over there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
