Twin Otter coming to Hollister!

It's been a while, and after a few false starts, it looks like we have ourselves a turbine to come and stay for a few months.

That's right, 23 lovely turbine slots will be here in Hollister through the Spring, starting this weekend.

See you guys up there!

What is the cost on slots? The website says $20 but I think that may be dated....
Regardless, I'll see you guys sometime soon. Do you think you will only be able to fill the plane on weekends, and run the cessna during the week?

Hey...... I was..just..... curious... I know more than one place I have jumped where there was a ride back to the airport.

And I did put smily's in the post...

Yea, the site is a bit dated... We're going to be running $15 slots for load 1, wheels up at 8:30 this coming Sat & Sun , the 7th and 8th :D

After that it's $25 out of the Otter to 15k and $20 out of the Cessna to 10k. We ran it last weekend and had a blast, such a beautiful plane!

We're going to have a pretty busy weekend coming up, hope to see you all up there!

Does this mean no more King Airs in the bay area, with Byron on the Pac now as well?

We did the first two loads Saturday morning from the King Air. Its not completely retired. Love that air speed!

Monterrey has had their A200 King air for some time now, and Lodi recently got one as well. Fast as hell! Lodi is using a Beech 99 as well, gotta love a big door, and almost as fast.

Sadly, I've been working so many weekends the past 2 quarters, I'm not making the rounds these days, getting way out of touch.

I'll bump this thread for ya. Well, I totally screwed my shoulder up this weekend, so no jumping for 2 weeks. How frequently do you guys run the chopper???
