popsjumper 2 #406 July 11, 2007 We made it safe and sound...amazingly. Sleeping in the car is great...you don't have to see the accident you're about to have. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Booster_MPS 0 #407 July 11, 2007 QuoteHow much are jump tickets for the regular aircraft? How about the specialty aircraft? Same prices for cash or CC? Not sure about the Sky Van, AN2 and other specialty aircraft, but the Otter and Caravan are $20.00 to altitude (usually 13,500 to 14,000 depending on conditions). No credit card fees as Spaceland either! Cash and credit are the same. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,515 #408 July 11, 2007 I think that's the "package" price. I just called the DZ and jumps are $23 to altitude out of the standard aircraft. Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

JohnRich 4 #413 July 11, 2007 QuoteI just called the DZ and jumps are $23 to altitude out of the standard aircraft. I can't find any pricing info, either on the Spaceland web site, or on the Skyfest web site. I would like to know: - The cost of jumping each of the specialty aircraft. - Cost of registration (boogie fee). - Is there a one-day Saturday-only boogie fee? Someone in charge, please post.

I would offer to pick him up, but I think he's coming in earlier than I can be there (if he's not already here)... Lemme know if you need to scoot, and I can work something out...

Luminous 0 #417 July 11, 2007 Quote 23 for regular AC, So Spaceland has upped their regular jump ticket price for Skyfest? Last I heard jump tickets were $20 at Spaceland.

Steve needs to post it online so we can plan our finances, or plan our jumps to fit our means. Boogie fee is $40 on Saturday, or $15 on Sunday. There is no one-day fee for Saturday only. So for me to come down Saturday just to jump the Antonov-2 is going to cost me $86. Blech!
