livendive 8 #26 August 13, 2008 Quote Quote I have also witnessed 1 182,2 TI's,4 rigs and one afternoon to do 48 students. 24 loads in the afternoon. Wow that's one heckuva 182. Exactly my thought, especially since it appears the TI's were having to pack. I gotta see one of these jet-powered 182's. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

baronn 111 #27 August 13, 2008 It was a busy day and we didn't get to full altitude.But, we got it done. A team effort all the way, along with some exceptional students. Being organized and not wasting any time is what made it happen. Anyone ambitious could've done it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Being organized and not wasting any time is what made it happen. Anyone ambitious could've done it. If we assume "afternoon" goes from say, noon to 6 PM, 24 loads would require 15 minute turns...not including fueling time, gear-up time, packing time, etc. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"
