tucoxn 0 #1 December 6, 2005 I heard a rumor about a wind tunnel not too far north of Pittsburgh, PA. Has anyone heard anything about this?? "Moderation in everything - even in moderation!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freefalling2day 0 #2 December 7, 2005 It is listed on the Skyventure site,.. but I have not heard a thing about it lately. We are north,... so come visit us when we are up and running. www.skyventurenh.com I think that Silicon Valley might be the next one to be built but that is at least a year away. Check out bodyflight.net sometimes they list news of other tunnels. Blue Skies! Laurie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
