ryan_d_sucks 0 #13 July 14, 2010 Anyone else going? I have seen the aircraft listed on skydive chicago's site... 2 Twin otters, skyvan and DC3. Have any of you Chicago natives heard word on specialty jumps like balloons, biplanes, or choppers? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smartalecc5 0 #16 July 22, 2010 Ill be getting in tonite for a couple days...hopefully the weather holds out. Sunday looks great though. Should be fun! Can't wait to jump the skyvan for my first time. If anyone wants to jump with me and my newbie friend (~45 jumps each!) come say hi. My name Kevin is on my black/white/red mirage rig!

skydiver9999 0 #17 July 24, 2010 By chance is anyone out there flying in to Milwaukee on Tuesday? It was like $300 cheaper to fly in there than Chicago so thought I'd rent a car & drive the extra hour to Summerfest but it turns out cars are like $600 to rent there! Sadly it's a deal breaker for me so if anyone wants to split a car or has any suggestions I'd appreciate it! Kristen Quote Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The chopper arrived tonight and will be doing jumps starting tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though half the problem is taxes. You can also catch a bus from the airport here to ohare for like, $30 or something. You can also take the train into the city of chicago if that helps somehow, but the train station is about 10 blocks from the airport, don't know if there is a shuttle.~D Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me.
