jakee 1,489 #4 May 20, 2005 I'm seriously thinking about going to Chicago for the summerfest, but probably wont quite get first flight numbers/currency until the end of the boogie. Do you know if there will be any BMI's at SDC the following week?Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouDiamond 1 #5 May 20, 2005 QuoteDo you know if there will be any BMI's at SDC the following week? That I do not know. But I know there will be one at WFFC Stop by the booth at SDC and see me so we can figure something out for you. As for the S3S/S5: keep an eye on the BirdMan web site for details, they should be up shortly."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you know if there will be any BMI's at SDC the following week? Rook and Melissa (the two owners) are both BMIs and have their own demo fleet. I've had very bad experience with trying to get a FFC from them though, so be sure to call and schedule in advance...and call again to double and tripple check! Lou, I'll probably come up for a FFC, so that maybe I can get my flock on by the end of the convention! I got a strong urge to fly, but I got no where to fly to. -PF Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dougiefresh 0 #9 May 20, 2005 Is there a jump # requirement for first flights?

Jiggs 0 #11 May 23, 2005 Hmm sounds fun - did not get to see the new toys as Jari did not bring them to Australia - I will be in the region so it might be cool to go and check this out. Any ideas on who else will be around? Will there be decent flocks or is it more of a first jump course thing?"Don't blame malice for what stupidity can explain."

This is a good sized boogie I am told, so the attendence should be pretty good and I can guarentee you I will be organizing flocks for all those who want to participate."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
