I don't have an opening date yet...but test flights...affirmative. All that you've been hoping for? I don't exactly know what you've been hoping for The chamber is huge, the power is there and then some. More than we will ever need even if one were to throw Slotperfect in there with a 100lb ruck Fast and clean are the reports. We're almost there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More than we will ever need even if one were to throw Slotperfect in there with a 100lb ruck I'll step up to that challenge! That much power makes it attractive to military organizations for training. The value of being able to fly big loads like that in a safer tunnel environment is huge. If I have any skin left on my face we can go have a afterward! (Iced tea for m'lady).Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slotperfect 7 #63 July 2, 2005 QuoteSafer than what? Safer than an actual free fall jump. Jumping combat equipment sometimes adds a whole new equation to the process. It is much better to learn to fly it in a low-risk environment first . . . it mitigates the risk when you enter the higher risk environment of free fall.Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #64 July 2, 2005 Agreed. I have flown 4 different types of rig/ruck combinations in the tunnel now, and there is atleast one system I doubt I'd ever try to take to the sky. Not because I couldn't fly it, but because there are safer alternitives.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

canopywhore 0 #66 July 12, 2005 come on Bets lie to me, or at least tell us a good story, I know they have ran the tunnel, I hear that they need to finish the a/c, interior, and a little finish work inside the chamber. I heard a rumor that they can keep people at the nets at 75%. Of course you can't confirm or deny, so tells us a story-pleeease. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zenister 0 #67 July 13, 2005 well since the managers are going to the World Games i think its safe to say it wont be open till sometime after that..... (not that them going is delaying it, but that the lack of activity means they have the time...) ps.
