jimjumper 25 #1 November 25, 2012 Today the Jim Wallace Skydiving School taught it's last student and closed it's doors. After 20+ years of existence in 3 different locations it was finally time. Jim Wallace is far from retiring however, he continues to teach and jump at Tactical Air Operations in San Diego. Gail, (his wife), is currently involved in the movie industry supplying props and equipment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

randyjumps 0 #5 December 12, 2012 Having made my 1st sport jump via this school while it was at Elsinore, I am slightly saddened by this news. But, if anyone has earned the retirement of his choice it is Jim. He was the videographer on that 1st jump and has been a good friend in the years since.

jimjumper 25 #8 December 15, 2012 The old Temecula airport your thinking about is probably Bear Creek. They were there for a couple of years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
